Hot Conviction for Cold Case
At last ..
A man who carried out a horrific catalogue of abuse on women and children over 24 years has been jailed for life.
Colin Gillies went on trial at Aberdeen Sheriff Court last year, facing 20 charges.
They included assaulting three women and a child to the danger of their lives at properties in Inverbervie, Aberdeen and Turriff.
The offenses happened between 1990 and 2014.
A jury found him guilty of 18 of the violent offenses after deliberating for less then two hours, and the case was referred to the High Court in Edinburgh due to its severity.
And yesterday, judge Lady Carmichael jailed the 52-year-old for at least 39 months – but warned there was was no guarantee he would be released after that.
She placed him on a lifelong restriction order, which means he would only be released from prison if it was deemed safe to allow him to.

Awareness Becomes Control
Exposure is inevitable!
Superb article from Anne Wade which joins many dots in Rochdale and
beyond. She shows the value of unearthing abuse from years ago and the
effects it is still having today.

Should old and dead paedophiles be left in peace? By bringing out detailed stories of historic childhood abuse we may give relief and justice to survivors, but do we benefit the rest of the community? Or does this engage resources that are better applied to current abuse? Is there any harm in simply saying the past is past, and putting all our energy into how we treat children in the…

Corruption From Within
Transparency exposure at its best!
Did John Podesta Try To Oust Rep Scalise Over Sex Trafficking?
John Podesta and a group of Democrats called for Rep. Steve Scalise to resign shortly after he began his efforts to combat human trafficking as the Majority Whip of the House. “In 2002 GOP Majority Whip Steve Scalise spoke at a rally sponsored by former KKK leader, David Duke,” the e-mail stated. “It’s time for Scalise to step down as GOP Majority Whip.”
By Liz Crokin-The Hagmann Report
The signature-drive by Podesta and other Democrats calling for Scalise to resign began at the same time Scalise started working on legislation as the Majority Whip in the House to end human trafficking. Scalise and other Republicans had been working on several bills that took aim at human trafficking. On Jan. 27, 12 of those bills passed in the Republican-controlled House. Scalise gave a press conference at the Capitol about those bills on the same day they were passed.
