>A blind, disabled woman felt "utterly trapped" by Rolf Harris as he groped her, a court has heard.
>The woman, who has been disabled since birth, was totally blind and had to walk with a stick when the indecent assault allegedly took place.
>She said she remembered feeling hot air from Mr Harris's nostrils and his beard tickling the back of her neck after he approached "from absolutely nowhere", and could tell he was getting excited as his breathing got heavier, the court heard.
>Mr Harris, appearing at Southwark Crown Court via video link from Stafford Jail, denies seven charges of indecent assault and one of sexual assault.
Alan Thiche was fortunate enough to find out about Rolf right before he died.

I remember before all this happened, I asked a few Australians if they knew Rolf Harris, and they all unanimously knew him as "oh, that artist, right?"
Now if I ever do that again he's gonna be known as "that rapist that stole everyone's hearts and then stomped on them ;_;"

Nothing will top the last trial when he imitated the sound of a didgeridoo and sang Jake the Peg while on the stand. Reports at the time said that members of the jury were smiling and laughing but that didn't stop them form convicting him on all counts.

He wrote a song about the experience, quite sensual and erotic imo
So the exact same as if you mentioned Cosby in front of an American or Saville in front of a Brit?
Hunter Lopez
letting him be the court artist at his own trial was a step too far I think.

Because you're not allowed to record or photograph in most big trials but you can't stop someone from sketching

> In 2014, at the age of 84, he was jailed on twelve counts of indecent assault that took place between 1968 or 1969 and 1986, on four female victims then aged between eight and nineteen.
more BS garbage Actual rapists or murderers are let free because its impossible to fight cases 30 years after they happen
But then you see this trash

The Operation Yewtree cases are a mixed bag. Dave Lee Travis was cleared on over a dozen charges but was convicted of groping an adult woman for a few seconds in the 90s. Fortunately he wasn't jailed for that. Then you've got Gary Glitter and Chris Denning who were obviously guilty. Max Clifford photographed his victims and kept a letter one of them sent to him, so he was pretty guilty too. Most of the other people arrested were never even charged.
Some of the claims against Rolf Harris are questionable. He very likely abused his daughter's best friend; his side of the story, which was that she had seduced him as soon as she turned 18, was just a little too convenient. They let people from outside the UK testify against him and I think the jury convicted him based on those accusations rather than the other ones he was charged with, which were less convincing.
The tide has turned against these kinds of cases so I have no idea how this second trial will turn out.
