More than 500 reports of abuse on victims aged as young as two have been made against late BBC presenter Jimmy Savile, according to a new investigation by the NSPCC charity.
The probe found that Savile, one of the biggest television stars in Britain in the 1970s and 80s, exploited high-level contacts to gain access to vulnerable victims at a high-security psychiatric hospital.
"There's no doubt that Savile is one of the most, if not the most, prolific sex offender that we at the NSPCC have ever come across," said Peter Watt, director of child protection at the children's charity.
"What you have is somebody who at his most prolific lost no opportunity to identify vulnerable victims and abuse them."
The investigation was commissioned by BBC program Panorama and will be aired at 8.30pm local time (0530 AEST Tuesday). The report was published on Monday. Full story...
