The following information has been forwarded by Belinda McKenzie, please circulate far and wide.
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.
FROM MICHAEL H. MURRIN:
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these sections I do regard as confidential and, as such, they will not be
published.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
