Who is he? What did he do?
Harris, 84, showed no emotion when he sentenced for 12 sexual assaults
Harris got a ‘thrill’ abusing children, declared him a sexual offender
Keywords suggest child-molesting puke.
No doubt a leftist too, if that even needs saying.
Tie me kangaroo down, sport....
Well I'll tell you what, he did a lot more than tie me kangaroo down boy!
That doesn’t add up to 5 years, 9 months, but 11 years, 9 months.
Fifty years or so ago this fellow of Australian background became world famous with his recording of a song called “Tie Me Kangaroo Down Sport”, you can find it on You Tube. I had the 45rpm record as a child.
Harris went on to celebrity and fame in the UK but after the allegations of sexual abuse came out about another big UK entertainer, Jimmy Saville, the lid was off and a whole bunch of celebrities ended up getting investigated and charged with victims coming forward all over the place.
Rolf Harris was on of those caught in this dragnet.
Why so lenient?
That is insane
Harris did television shows in the UK and made stage appearances, also ended up painting.
Why is it that almost half of celebrities are either suicidal nutjobs, drug addicts, or pedophiles/perverts?
I never heard of it.
I sure hope nothing bad ever comes out on “Captain Kangaroo”.
He didn’t get the Sandusky treatment, but he is 84 and the BBC suggested that even with this light sentence, he could die in prison.
I was thinking the same thing.
Harris did an appearance in more recent years doing a more kid friendly version of the song with the Australian group called The Wiggles.
My granddaughter has a CD of it.
They should tack on another five or so years just to be sure.
Given the time frame, I find all this extremely troubling but my opinion is prejudiced.
Back in either 2005 or 2006, there was a worker at my plant who had custody of his daughter. The daughter's teenage girlfriend accused Andy of molesting her and he was subsequently arrested, arraigned and thrown in jail.
To make a long story short, it was ultimately discovered the young girl had been coached by Andy's ex-wife to lie and make up the accusation............
sad.
