    Disgraced Publicist Max Clifford Due For Sentencing Today

    ... after being found guilty in relation to 8 charges of Indecent Assault at Southwark Crown Court last Monday, Clifford will be sentenced today.

    Commenting on the verdict, the director of the NSPCC stated that the high-profile journalist has rightly been unmasked as a "ruthless and manipulative sex offender who, for decades, has preyed on children and young women".

    ... hopefully,
    they'll "throw the book" at him!

    Hmm ... no doubt to be served in some "open" prison as seems to be increasingly the case with errant public figures these days.

    Still, the *sentence is lengthier than the 71-year-old PR guru is thought to've expected and consistent with the fact that the offences were, for the most part, committed decades ago. Moreover, *it reflects the defiant Clifford's arrogance in refusing to apologise to his victims ... some of whom had been subjected to the ordeal of appearing in court to testify against him.

    First of 'Operation Yewtree' to be found guilty. I wonder why this jury found him guilty and the other 'celebrities' up to now have been found not guilty?

    Clifford has just been re-arrested and interviewed by Scotland Yard detectives in relation to Op-Yewtree. Guess we won't be seeing him on the High Street for quite some time yet



    Sometimes you're flush and sometimes you're bust, and when you're up, it's never as good as it seems, and when you're down, you never think you'll be up again. But life goes on.
    The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears, the figure that she carries, or the way she combs her hair. The beauty of a woman is seen in her eyes, because that is the doorway to her heart, the place where love resides. True beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul. It's the passion that she shows to the outside world.

    I don't think his money will talk very nicely for him any more.

    As well as the lawyers, I think his ex wife's taken care of most of his cash. I remember 3 or 4 years ago seeing him driving through Weybridge in his Bentley with a smug grin on his face

    Most mornings he would be in that cafe just off Weybridge High Street with his "100 MAX" parked in the street. You knew he was there. I saw him getting hassle from some builders who drove past him and shouted out the window of their van when the molestation story first broke.

    I once dropped a pal of mine off at his offices in Bond Street. Clifford was representing Kevin Keegan and my pal wanted Kevin as a name within his sports betting organisation. He reckoned Clifford was a right *anker..........

    Aren't we supposed to say things like R.I.P and suchlike when someone passes away? . He has a disabled daughter, seen her once or twice, feel a bit sad for her, then I think of the daughters he molested that were other peoples so maybe R.I.P should be Rot in Pieces.

    According to 'The Sun' there had - at one stage during court proceedings - been some debate over the size of his ... with descriptions ranging from tiny to ENORMOUS !

    ................................................................................................................................................. ... before finally being
    settled by a doctor, as "average"!

    NEITHER am I! ... lest your [somewhat uncalled] for *remark leads ANYONE on here to believe otherwise.

    I simply happened to come across the information in the link provided ... ... and thought I'd share it.

    Doubt if it'll still be there now, anyway - since press links keep being updated. But feel free to check.
