Even if nothing illegal happened, it's still very much immoral. You wonder why these things keep happening.

The Sun newspaper stirring the crap again without providing proof. Liverpool will never forgive them

Please think about this case: How can the London Metropolitan Police and the Welsh Police just look at this case for a few hours or one day and conclude that no criminality has occured; especially when the Mother accused this presenter of receiving explicit pictures from when her son was seventeen years old, which is a crime in the U.K. Also, there are now four different cases or accusations leveled against Mr. Edward's directly from at least three victims. How can the police shut the investigation down without doing a proper investigation? Because the police are part of this problem not the solution, because they are part of the Elite who protect the Elite - whenever a Labour MP or any MP is accused, or any T.V. personality is accused, they are always so quick to drop the case - except, of course, Cliff Richard, who they accused falsely and colluded with the BBC. And later, the BBC were sued by Cliff, and the BBC had to pay out a huge sum of money paid for by the British taxpayers, since it is a public-paid state organisation; this confirms that both the BBC and the Metropolitan Police are institutionised compromised

How is that not illegal this person was 17? That's underage isn't it? If he doesn't get hemmed up, we are going to have a field day with the teeny boppers. Because its immoral not illegal.

We all looking at this, and saying this is the message they are putting out?

These are the people you elect or to have represent you and tell you the news.

If they get to get away with it, and cry depression, then I don't see why we cant either.

Two can play rules for thee and not for me.

Wait this started when the boy was 17 would we be saying this if a man was paying a girl for photos from when she was 17 ?

Why did his WIFE make official statement? And why are we suddenly finding out that a supposed married man is or has been secretly gay for years.... again
Feel sorry for the wife, and what she's had to put uo with
