Fksake. Who need morals when you can buy your way out of anything? It's all as grubby as hell innit.

Indeed. From the BBC story;
"The BBC documentary reveals that, as part of Gemma's settlement in 2009, she had to sign a non-disclosure agreement (NDA), a legally-binding contract which ensures information remains confidential.
She says after she was raped, she contacted a lawyer who told Harrods she was leaving her job on the grounds of sexual harassment. Gemma says she did not feel able, at that time, to disclose the full extent and seriousness of Fayed's assaults.
Harrods agreed she could leave and it would pay a sum of money in exchange for her shredding all evidence and signing an NDA. Gemma says a member of Harrods’ HR team was present as the shredding took place."
As you say, cash is king. There are doubtless countless more stories where rich people have paid people off to keep their dodgy secrets under wraps. The root of all evil.
Trust the process. Trust Phil.

I reckon there’s quite a few men (and most probably women as well) in the public eye whose last thought at night is whether the law will catch-up with them at some point. And, there’s probably a lot of ‘National treasures’ who died without the public knowing what they were really like.

I don't think it's only people in the public eye who act like this if they think they can get away with it.
The ongoing case in France where 60 or so men, mostly with normal jobs, from the same region, going around and raping a woman who is drugged up.
A mass of Pakistani men from the same community raping underage girls in cities like Rotherham.
I can't imagine that all the French men considered themselves rapists or would be in 99.9999% of situations, and I can't imagine that a big chunk of the Pakistani community are nonces.....but presumed safety in numbers, opportunism, getting away with things and that's what they end up being.
I'd love to understand more about psychology to know why people think that they can do these things - I imagine it's different for different people - but must be something to do with it being illegal

The French case is nuts. It does make you wonder what's going on behind closed doors in some seeming 'normal' households. It could be the buzz from doing something forbidden I suppose. But even if that's the case, I still don't understand how people could put a young girl (or anyone) through such an ordeal.

You’re right - when people feel immune from being caught some are capable of vile behaviour.
My comments were more in keeping with Max Clifford’s stories regarding people in the public eye.

It was way more than a powerful man taking advantage. He was a multiple rapist targeting young female employees, and from the testimony of some it is clear his sexual assaults/rapes were premeditated and frequent.

An extraordinary amount of previous generations of 'entertainers' are now proven to be sexual predators. I'm expecting a similar wave in coming years from among all the online 'influencers' our children absorb.
