    Were the allegations not brought to the police before the tv documentary?

    I might be speaking out of my ass here, but it could be that the allegations were brought to the police first, but there wasn’t enough evidence at the time for the police to file charges, and then the documentary investigation turned up more evidence than the police had.

      Quite possible it’s just a fuck-up. But really the police should be able to do what a TV documentary crew can do. I mean what is the police there for? (Socialist answer is obviously to protect the rich and powerful)

      How many cases were not pursued because it wasn’t profitable and opportune to make a popular documentary for them? Inequality based on identity like gender is the core belief of fascism, so this is a serious problem to leave unfixed.
