on this episode of the compelled podcast, we take a look at Stuart Hall and the continuing fall out of Operation YewTree and then we take a look at Lysle Burgess a Stockton area businessman accused of inappropriately touching children
Stuart Hall is an English former radio and television presenter. He presented regional news programmes for the BBC in North West England in the 1960s and 1970s, while becoming known nationally for presenting It’s a Knockout and Jeux Sans Frontières. His later career mainly involved football reporting on BBC radio.
In December 2012 and January 2013, Hall was charged with multiple sexual offences across a twenty-year period. Although he initially denied any wrongdoing, he pleaded guilty in April 2013 to having indecently assaulted 13 girls, aged between 9 and 17 years old, between 1967 and 1986

A California businessman accused of raping a 5-year-old girl doesn’t have to spend a day behind bars — or register as a sex offender.
Lyle Burgess, a 79-year-old from Stockton, pleaded no contest Wednesday to felony statutory rape of the young child as a part of a negotiated plea deal, according to The Stockton Record. He now faces 90 days of house arrest or an alternative-work program and informal probation for five years.
Ken Meleyco, the attorney for the girl’s family, told Fox40 that “future victims are not protected” after the punishment was handed down to Burgess, who founded an automotive parts manufacturer called Rare Parts Inc. in 1981.
“He’s obviously very wealthy,” the attorney said, “and it’s just an example of how the wealthy people, time and time again, escape the penalty for what they did.”
