Andaman Al Posted December 19, 2016 Share Posted December 19, 2016 Quote His victims reported the offences to West Midlands Police in August last year after seeing Facebook posts celebrating Clarke's 100th birthday. I tell you, Face Book has got more people in the s**t than anything else. Post nothing on FB. Good to see the courts are brave enough to dish out justice regardless of age.

Now that's not what I was saying in the first part of my post is it, and you know it full well. It was a tongue in cheek jibe at the number of people that get themselves in the poop with FB. Losing jobs, losing husbands, wives and............getting arrested. There are gazillions of people who do not commit child sex offences get in deep poop on FB every day. I made it crystal clear I was happy with the actions of the court. Merry scrooging Christmas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good God'The amount of Pedophiles seems endless and let's face it' bet there's loads of them hidden all over Asia and a few in here no doubt. Facebook and the internet has them all running and the more exposed the better IMHO. Thugs, rapists, murderers, conmen, bully's, hitmen, wife beaters, cruel teachers, bent coppers, cruelty to children and pets, molesters and so on ain't having it easy in this modern era. Who would've imagined we'd be using smart phones on forums to interact with each other on subjects like this. It's became a world of cameras watching your every move. Problems are the same as the past like newspapers exposé though even if untrue - 5h1te sticks. On the internet treble that by Zillions!!!!Sent from my iPhone using Thaivisa ConnectUndoubtedlyI can't see this old pervert being seen as an escapee artist like he's been in his former life. It always seems to be the bloody perverts who seem happiest of all. Smile at the world as if there's never anything gnawing away at their bloody consciences.

At 101 years I would imagine suicide would seem a comfortable means to avoid a fate worse than death, though I imagine he would prefer a less painful end to the one you are perhaps recommending.

Now if he'd been a politician, sports coach, professional entertainer, "pillar of society" or member of certain ethnic groups the police are shy to investigate in the name of the bigger picture of racial harmony, he'd have gotten off.

True, but if I only had a short time to live the last place I'd want to spend them is in prison - especially as a child molester which means he'll be hated by pretty much everyone.
