Fuck they people & people who "enable" them in hiding behind "health issues"

People like that don't deserve any sympathy

Every time a TV celeb/host gets caught they play the health card

Its outrageous and down right messed up that anyone takes that pish into account especially when the "things" they are caught at involves underage people

BBC shoulda fired him on the spot the moment they knew but didn't they carried on paying him while he was "off unwell" with "health" issues "health issues" that only occurred after he had been caught and questioned

"At the time, no charges had been brought against Mr Edwards and the BBC had also been made aware of significant risk to his health,” said the spokesperson, whose note was shared with BBC staff.

BBC Admits It Was Aware Huw Edwards Had Been Arrested Five Months Before He Quit

Delivering its first statement on the matter days after Edwards was charged, and coming on the day he pled guilty at Westminster Magistrates Court, a BBC spokesperson said it was “made aware in confidence that he had been arrested on suspicion of serious offences and released on bail whilst the police continued their investigation.” This was in November.
