Rolf Harris, who was just convicted with indecent assaults to a number of young women has been finally sentenced.
The 84 year-old entertainer has just been found guilty for all the sex attacks that he had to young girls aged nearly on their twenty's. His victims just recently exposed how great is the damage left to them after they were sexually attacked by the especially on their psychological well-being. Rolf Harris has been convicted to the crimes he committed starting from the late 60s until 1985.
The statements released were actually recalled in the court, but it doesn't seem to bother the veteran entertainer. Some of the victim's statement reveals that the attack made them feel dirty and disgusting while there was also a victim who said that what happened to her has become a huge turning point in her life and that she has never recovered from him. Another is that she claims that she has never felt that she's still safe after constantly living in a world filled with anxiety.
According to the report from the Guardian, defense counsel, Sonia Woodley QC said that his crimes had been 'brief and opportunistic' and not predatory. Although previous evidences were already presented which eventually led to Rolf Harris being convicted to the crime, he greatly denied any wrongdoing. It was way back in 2012 that the disgraced Australian born entertainer that he was arrested for the sexual crimes he committed through the years.
Now that a decision has been reached, it is most likely expected that the already 84 year-old personality will be spending most of his time in prison. After a long wait, victims have received justice. According to the recent reports, Rolf Harris will be sent into prison where he will spend five years and nine months of his remaining life.
