The Hunt For A Predator | Operation Yewtree | Rolf Harris Exposed

Описание: Rolf Harris true crime documentary — United Kingdom (London, Berkshire) and Australia, spanning the 1960s–2010s — examining the allegations, investigation, and court outcomes that ended a decades-long public career. This film follows the timeline from early public prominence to the Operation Yewtree-era inquiry, the 2014 trial and sentencing, subsequent proceedings, and the long-term institutional and cultural aftermath.

Beginning with Rolf Harris’s background as an Australian-born entertainer who built major television and music fame in the UK, the documentary tracks how historical allegations surfaced, how police inquiries developed, and what the case required to move from claims to charges. We focus on high-level proof pathways—witness testimony, documented timelines, corroboration, and how prosecutors framed patterns and credibility—without graphic detail.

The investigation arc centers on key turning points: arrest and charging decisions, what investigators pursued and missed, and how the courtroom tested evidence and consistency. The documentary then covers the 2014 convictions and prison sentence, later legal developments including further proceedings, release, and the 2017 appeal outcome where one conviction was overturned while others stood—plus what those rulings reveal about evidence standards and institutional accountability in historical sexual abuse cases.
