Mentioning sex offenders in high places and positions of responsibility

 I was truly shocked to read about Lord Devlin and the testimony of his daughter, Clare, whom he sexually abused. Patrick Devlin was one of the most celebrated judges in High Court.  He was apparently above reproach and very highly respected. Yet according to his daughter in a Special Report in The Observer, last Sunday 25.07.21, Sins of a father, Judge Devlin subjected Clare to sadistic sexual assaults during her childhood.  Her memories of such abuse were from the age of seven.  The psychological scars go deep. Clare is now 81 years of age and has finally revealed her suffering at the hands of a sex offender with such a high reputation. He will be now known as Devilish Devlin, dark lord of dastardly deeds.
