Could it be that all this paedo hysteria of the last decade is not just Daily Mail/Sun retard-baiting, but that we know, deep down, that this country has a problem? As an American colleague put it: "Why is it that Brits like f**king kids so much?"
In no way am I saying that this issue is confined to the UK, or even that we are significantly worse than anywhere else, but perhaps we have been turning a blind eye to something which is a problem for this country, and it's psyche?
I mean, I went to the day part of a school that had boarders, and we all knew that a couple of the teachers were banging 5th year girls in the dorms, and that the Asian lads in BMWs had 'young' girlfriends from the local comp. And this was the 80s.

It's interesting that an allegation results in everyone deciding he's a mega-kiddie-fker.
It's not one allegation though, is it? It is a pattern of repeated allegations over time and repeated cover ups and denials, the police and the mainstream press ignore it and anyone trying to tell the truth is discredited and portrayed as some kind of loony. Or, seemingly, killed. And Ted Heath's case seems to fit the pattern.So, quite a bit more than one allegation.

A court judgement?
Hard to prosecute the dead.Best would be "overwhelming evidence would lead us to believe that... serial abuse... etc... lessons will be learned... raises important safeguarding questions.... regrettably all concerned are now deceased... important files no longer available"
etc

Somewhat unlikely in this case.But the same could be said of Greville "Too demented for his nonce trial" Janner.
While you're at it, I've never liked the look of Mr Smith at number 22, I'm sure there's something odd about him!
Get him!
