NEWS
RELEASE
The British Broadcasting Corporation
(BBC) is embroiled in a child sex scandal centred on Jimmy Savile, its anchorman
on many popular entertainment shows for over thirty years. Now new information
is surfacing which indicates that Jimmy Savile was a fully paid up member of the
Paedophile Information Exchange (P.I.E) - an organisation which campaigned for
the abolition of the age of consent in the UK.
The letter below
has been sent to Lord Patten, Chairman of the BBC Trust. In it I have stated
"I am placing this information before you
in this open letter as I feel that the BBC should now initiate a full
investigation into these reports suggesting that during the 1970’s and early
1980’s the BBC’s editorial policy was influenced in favour of P.I.E. This
alleged infiltration of the BBC by P.I.E might also explain how Savile was able
to operate as a sexual predator during his extended tenure at the BBC without
challenge and/or prosecution."
I will pursue my objective of securing a
full investigation into the alleged membership of Jimmy Savile of the
organisation, P.I.E. I will also continue to seek a full and open investigation
of the influence, if any, that P.I.E exerted on BBC editorial policy during the
1970's and 1980's. I also expect the authorities to investigate whether any BBC
employees were members of P.I.E or expressed sympathy and support for the aims
and objectives of P.I.E.

Dear Lord Patten,
RE: BBC / Jimmy
Savile.
This is an open letter, ie. I do not
regard it as confidential and reserve the right to publish it. There are some
parts of it in italics, these sections I do regard as
confidential and, as such, they will not be published.
During 1982 I initiated an investigation
into corruption in public life which resulted in the criminal prosecution of
some high profile figures for offences against children, including serial child
rape.
PARAGRAPH DELETED.
I turn now to the reason for my writing to
you at this point.
My investigation led me to the fringes of
the Paedophile Information Exchange (P.I.E), an organisation whose history is a
matter of public record. The organisation was founded during October 1974 and
officially disbanded during 1984. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paedophile_Information_Exchange)
Due to a lack of
financial support my investigation into PIE was severely limited although I did
secure two names on the membership list of the organisation, one was Jimmy
Savile. One of the key aims of the organisation was to secure a reduction of
the age of consent in the UK to FIVE and then abolish it altogether. The
organisation secured significant support within parliament, the entertainment
industry, the media and similar, professional, organisations. It was reported
that, when the organisation was finally closed down, the membership list was
found to contain the names of nationally known politicians, entertainers and
people engaged in professions, including the medical and legal profession. Some
teachers were, I believe, also found to be registered members. The quality and
influential nature of its membership and the extent of support for the aims of
the organisation among ‘opinion formers’ probably explains how it managed to
remain in existence in this country for a decade before it was finally closed
down. My investigations did clearly indicate that the tentacles of P.I.E
extended deep into the establishment including the BBC and Parliament.
This quote from the book Paedophilia - The
Radical Case (Chapter 11) gives an indication of just how far the tentacles of
P.I.E had spread and how influential the organisation had become
"One outcome of the MIND conference was
the suggestion to Keith that PIE should submit evidence to the Home Office
Criminal Law Revision Committee on the age of consent. With amazing despatch
Keith did exactly this, preparing and submitting the seventeen-page document
discussed in Chapter 6 in a matter of weeks, without the benefit of research
time or facilities at his disposal. What's more, we have it on reliable
authority that his work caught the imagination of no less a figure than the Home
Secretary of the time, Roy Jenkins."
The source who notified me that Savile was
a fully paid up member of the organisation is extremely reliable. Other sources
implied that Savile’s membership of P.I.E was known to others within the BBC who
were either sympathetic to its objectives or were members themselves. This might
explain why there appeared to be no effective pursuit of the organisation by BBC
sponsored current affairs and investigative programmes during that period of
P.I.E’s existence.
I am placing this information before you
in this open letter (except for the parts in ITALICS) as I feel that the BBC
should now initiate a full investigation into theses reports suggesting that
during the 1970’s and early 1980’s the BBC’s editorial policy was influenced in
favour of P.I.E. This alleged infiltration of the BBC by P.I.E might also
explain how Savile was able to operate as a sexual predator during his extended
tenure at the BBC without challenge and/or prosecution.
It has been reported that Savile was
responsible for the sexual assault of a brain damaged child at Stoke Mandeville
Hospital. It has been stated “it can get no lower than this.” I beg to differ.
My understanding is that the archive at New Scotland Yard hold an image of the
youngest child recorded as being sexually abused, the child was female and was
still attached to its mother by the umbilical cord. Perhaps there is someway to
go before we reach the bottom of this “cesspit?”
I do expect and formal and comprehensive
response from you within a reasonable time period. A copy of this letter has
been forward to The Commissioner of the Metropolitan Police, Mr Bernard
Hogan-Howe.
Yours sincerely,
Michael .H. Murrin
