They included 28 children aged under 10, including ten boys.<\/p>\n<p>A further 63 individuals were girls aged between 13 and 16 and nearly three quarters of his victims were under 18.<\/p>\n<p>Some 214 criminal offences have been recorded across 28 police forces and 34 rapes have been recorded.<\/p>\n<p>Police said the attacks took place over 54 years &#8211; the earliest in Manchester in 1955 &#8211; and in 14 locations, including hospitals and a hospice.<\/p>\n<p>The joint report by the Metropolitan Police and NSPCC said he used his celebrity status to &#8220;hide in plain sight&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>Claims of his abuse peaked between 1966 and 1976 when he was aged between 40 and 50.<\/p>\n<p>Some 450 people came forward to police about Savile.<\/p>\n<p>Police said there was no clear evidence he was acting as part of a paedophile ring. Detectives continue to investigate whether he was part of an informal network.<\/p>\n<p>Savile&#8217;s abuse &#8220;simply beggared belief&#8221;, the NSPCC said.<\/p>\n<p>Scotland Yard, said: &#8220;The kind of things we&#8217;re beginning to learn from this report that are new will shock people even more.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>A separate report for the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) said Savile could have been prosecuted for offences against three victims while he was alive had their allegations been taken more seriously.<\/p>\n<p>That report pointed to shortcomings by prosecutors and police in Surrey and Sussex in relation to alleged\u00a0attacks in the 1970s.<\/p>\n<p>Two of the four victims concerned were as young as 14, one of whom said Savile had assaulted her outside Stoke Mandeville Hospital.<\/p>\n<p>In 2009 a CPS lawyer reviewing the cases said that no prosecutions could have been brought because complainants were not &#8220;prepared to support any police action&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>But the CPS report out today said the cases had been treated with undue caution by police &#8211; and that had the individuals been told they were not alone in their allegations, a prosecution might have been possible in three cases.<\/p>\n<p>The Director of Public Prosecutions said the case was a &#8220;watershed moment&#8221; and that new guidelines on prosecutions in child sex exploitation cases would be drawn up.<\/p>\n<p>Criminologist Professor David Wilson told \u00a0News Savile was a narcissist whose fame and sense of &#8220;validation&#8221; by the Royal family, BBC and other institutions created a &#8220;perfect storm&#8221; in which he was able to abuse at every establishment he gained access to.<\/p>\n<!-- Error, Advert is not available at this time due to schedule\/geolocation restrictions! -->\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Police have revealed the full extent of sexual abuse by Jimmy Savile &#8211; saying his crimes spanning more than 50 years are thought to be unprecedented in the UK.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":702,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[80,63,17,1,118,14],"tags":[43394,10984,35800,43400,43402,43391,43396,43395,43392,13346,43398,43401,43399,7831,43390,43397,43393],"class_list":["post-31934","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-breaking-news","category-daily","category-europe","category-general","category-hot","category-world","tag-50-years-commited-harrasment","tag-bbc","tag-bbc-jimmy-savile","tag-bbc-presenter-jimmy-savile","tag-jimmy-savile-scandal","tag-jimmy-savile-sex-abuse","tag-jimmy-savile-sex-abuse-uk","tag-jimmy-savile-sex-harrasment","tag-savile-sex-abuse-report","tag-sex-crime","tag-sexual-abuse-jimmy-savile","tag-sxual-abuse","tag-tv-presenter-jimmy-savile","tag-uk","tag-uk-jimmy-savile","tag-uk-police","tag-uk-sex-buse-report"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.nationalturk.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/31934","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.nationalturk.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.nationalturk.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.nationalturk.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/702"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.nationalturk.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=31934"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.nationalturk.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/31934\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.nationalturk.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=31934"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.nationalturk.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=31934"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.nationalturk.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=31934"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
