Nobody in the police went down for continually killing any investigation into Jimmy Savile's crimes.
But while many people either reluctantly assisted Jimmy Savile in his crimes or readily participated, it was Savile himself who played the grotesque spider sitting at the center of this web.
See, if this series shows anything, it's that Savile was a genius at knowing and seeing how systems worked.
In my opinion, understanding systems is one of the skills that can enable a person to commit evil on a truly massive scale like Jimmy Savile did.
I mean, I actually, the person that Jimmy Savile is really similar to actually is Keith Raniere.
Oh, sure.
They just, they understand systems and they understand people and they understand how to work them to
their advantage.
Very, very low.
Oh, easily.
No, Keith Raniere is a very low-level piece of shit.
But it's the similar line of thinking.
It's just understanding systems, and you can really... That's the thing, is that the people that understand systems the best almost never use that power to make those systems better.
They almost always use their knowledge of those systems to commit evil, to enrich themselves, right?
And one by one, Savile figured out how to manipulate all the important systems of 20th century England.
He started in the black markets of Leeds.
He started in the organized crime system.
Savile eventually got to the point where he was pulling the strings of the prime minister and the royal family, all in service to feeding the gaping hole of evil within his own soul.
He destroyed countless lives with his crimes, but he psychologically damaged even more with the way in which he did it, by using systems.
Savile irreparably damaged the trust that people have in the systems that are supposed to protect us and are supposed to make our lives a little bit easier.
