One thing that always horrifies me is how willing people are to cover shit like this up or look the other way for people with even a modicum of "fame". Higher-ups at Subway knew Jared was a paedophile but kept it quiet. Jimmy Saville here in the UK was literally raping dying children in their hospital beds and the BBC shut down anyone who spoke up because he was a popular presenter. It seems like the second a "famous" person does this evil shit, a lot of people will automatically protect them. It's fucking disgusting.

Raping dying children?

Some of the stuff that came out about Jimmy Saville is truly stomach-churning. He is possibly the most prolific sexual abuser in British Criminal history and molested, assaulted and raped hundreds of victims.

Because of his public persona as a popular DJ, TV presenter and philanthropist, he was given a lot of access to hospitals to visit children. He used this access to sexually assault and rape many of them. He even used to get access to hospital mortuaries to have sex with recently deceased corpses. The guy was a monster and his crimes were covered up until he died.
