Jimmy Savile victims: case studies Jimmy Savile victims: case studies
(about 4 hours later)
Ms A (victim) Kevin Cook
Ms A was in her early 20s in 1970 when a chauffeur driving a large Rolls-Royce turned up unannounced at her home to take her to see Jimmy Savile. Two years earlier Ms A had written to Savile. The chauffeur took her to the local town hall, and Ms A and Savile ended up in his caravan. He started saying things to her, such as: "You are lovely; I'd like to lock you up in a cupboard and you'd be with me all the time," and that he could get her a job on Top of the Pops. Ms A told Sussex police in 2008 that Savile then pushed her down on to the bed and touched her breasts through her clothes. He called her a "little dolly bird" and placed one of her hands on his groin, his penis was erect and she pulled away. Savile told Ms A she could choose something from the caravan as a memento before she left. She picked up a small crucifix with a deer at the foot, which she took with her to the meeting with CPS lawyer Alison Levitt QC in 2012. Levitt found that police officers had "even if unintentionally, dissuaded her from pursuing her allegation". The former boy scout said he was nine when he was forced to give oral sex to an accomplice of Jimmy Savile while the TV host looked on and laughed.
Ms C (victim) Kevin Cook said he was physically and sexually abused by Savile and another man on a trip to BBC studios to watch the filming of Jim'll Fix It.
Ms C, a former pupil at Duncroft children's home, told Surrey police in 2008 that Savile had taken her hand when she was 15, put it on his groin and made himself aroused. This happened in an unlit television room at the school, in about 1978, shortly after she was released from hospital and when other girls were present, according to the CPS report. Savile asked her to go for a ride in his car but Ms C refused. Two days later Savile sent her an "enormous" box of chocolates. He claimed that while he was being sexually abused by Savile a second man walked into the dressing room but just said "oops" and walked back out. He has now spoken to police.

/>Ms G (victim)
Cook said: "The man walked into the room and carried on the abuse. He made me do stuff to him and he physically abused me as well, he hit me.
Ms G, a former pupil at Duncroft children's home, told police that Savile suggested to her she would get a job at Stoke Mandeville hospital if she gave him a "blow job". She refused, but made reference to giving Savile a "hand job" when she met Levitt for the CPS review in 2012. Ms G said the Duncroft children's home staff were in awe of Savile and he would visit every six to eight weeks. He would ask girls to comb his hair and massage his shoulders. She was interviewed as a witness by Surrey police in July 2008. Asked in the police interview whether she was a victim or witness of indecent assaults by Savile, Ms G began to talk about an incident in the school's television room but went off on a tangent. This was not explored further, according to the CPS review. "People have asked me, a couple of friends who know about it now have asked me, why I didn't say it all at the time. My parents are listening to this now.
"How can you tell your mum and your dad that you were forced to give oral sex to somebody and then they physically hit you afterwards, and Jimmy Savile there laughing?
"But I'm no longer scared now, and if the police find him I'm going to face him and I will get some justice."
Cook said the second man punched him on the head forcefully and tried to do it again but was stopped by Savile.
Reacting to the scale of the abuse laid bare by the police report, Cook told BBC Radio 5 Live: "I'm shocked by the amount and the time it's gone on and the amount that's gone on. I'm lost for words."
Caroline Moore
She was 13 and recovering from an operation on her spine at Stoke Mandeville hospital in 1971 when Savile tried to kiss her.
On Friday, Moore, now 54, and a wheelchair user, said: "I'm absolutely shocked that it has been going on for this long and that there are so many victims. It's scary that so many people knew and yet said nothing.
"There are still so many unanswered questions. I can't believe that he was allowed into the places that he was. The authorities need to get their act together and make sure nothing like this can happen in the future. A lot of people should be ashamed of themselves."
She added: "I find the whole thing terrifying. You don't think about people high up in society such as presenters and celebrities carrying out such attacks.
"But the fact that Jimmy Savile was respected meant he was actually more dangerous. I'm quite a strong person but the extent of what he did scares me."
Ms A
While in her early 20s, in 1970, Ms A received a visit from a chauffeur driving, unannounced, to her home in a large Rolls-Royce. It was to take her to see Jimmy Savile.

Levitt found that police officers had "even if unintentionally, dissuaded her from pursuing her allegation".

Ms B (witness)Ms B (witness)
Another former pupil of Duncroft children's home contacted Surrey police in May 2007 to say she had witnessed Savile indecently assaulting a teenage girl in the late 1970s. Ms B told police she saw Savile take another girl's [Ms C's] hand and put it over his crotch when watching television in an unlit room at the school. Ms B later said she reported it to police because she was angry at how Savile would be remembered as a national hero.
