One woman recalled Savile sexually assaulting her when she was 16. Even decades later, she told investigators, she remembered it vividly. After he was done, he turned an imperial eye to her. “You won’t talk about this,” he told her. “Nobody will believe you. I’m Jimmy Savile. I can get you.” The girl said she told her mother, but she didn’t believe her. The girl never talked about it again.

Her own MOM would not believe her. So who else would believe her? Nobody. So she became one more silent victim. The same celebrity worship protected Cosby all those years. Just swap the name Savile and Cosby in the above paragraph. That’s how it works.
