Failings of Scarborough police

The four most important failures to arrest Savile all occurred at Scarborough Police Station and in the Force Intelligence Bureau at Force Headquarters:
The failure to arrest Jaconelli, from 1947/51 to 1999 which would surely have led the police to Savile.
The failure to investigate complaints about Savile in Scarborough from at least the 1970’s until his death in 2011, which would have led to his arrest and prevented decades of offending.

The failure to arrest Savile as a result of the allegation North Yorkshire Police now admits it received in about 2003 or even earlier.

The failure to pass on the intelligence to Surrey Police in 2007 that North Yorkshire Police now admits it had in at least 2003 (as Real Whitby has consistently alleged), which ensured the failure of the Surrey investigation. Again, had it been passed on, it would probably have led to Savile’s arrest, but would inevitably have revealed that North Yorkshire Police had protected Jaconelli for years, because he was a Councillor, Alderman, the Mayor, a millionaire and a prominent local business man. Something North Yorkshire Police were obviously at great pains to avoid.Yet this has not been addressed in Operation Yewtree, the HMIC investigation, the IPCC investigation, the Cross Report or the Home Secretary’s statement to the House of Commons. Savile and Jaconelli’s blatant offending in Scarborough and the failure to investigate it properly by North Yorkshire Police have been immaculately airbrushed out of history and Operation Yewtree.
