Dead ex prime minister of Britain Sir Edward Heath is officially an accused pedophile now, who also used his power and prestige to convince police not to investigate him on child sex abuse charges.
That’s the latest development in a sex scandal inquiry that’s spreading like a cancer across the pond this year, and which threatens to take down every British public official in the beleaguered island kingdom, both living and deceased.
You can read more about Operation Hydrant next on Crime Magazine, but, according to the BBC, the newest accusations levied against the nation’s former dead-as-a-doorknob prime minister, emerged from … uh … a brothel his lordship used to frequent.
The brothel keeper contends she introduced those facts to Wiltshire detectives in the 1990s when Sir Edward was still alive and kicking, but, while she served jail time for offering clients like him children to sexually assault, he wasn’t even questioned.
Four of England’s police agencies -- Kent, Jersey, Met and Wiltshire -- have been tasked with finally probing the matter, which coincides with two larger probes dubbed Operation Midland and Operation Whistle which focus on an elite sex-offender ring of which the dead PM was allegedly a member.
Unofficially, at least one department spokesman has confirmed that an investigation concerning the ex prime minister’s alleged pedophilia was indeed launched decades ago, but then abruptly aborted.
Sir Edward Heath, who was the UK’s top dog from 1970 until 1974 when toppled by Margaret Thatcher, passed away unscathed by scandal in 2005 at the age ripe old age of 89.
If the allegations that he buggered little boys does prove true, he’ll be just one of several scores of prominent pedophile suspects who’ve avoided detection throughout their long, illustrious lives. And who, in death, have escaped prosecution for their sickening crimes.
