I wasn't thinking about anything that could get me sacked or questioned unless you count the thing in the spoiler... But stuff I've said, messages I've sent... I'm thinking more if I got famous and what someone hungry for money could use.
Just don't get famous and you'll be fine. :)

It wouldn’t even have gone to the CPS. You have to be arrested and charged for charges to go to the CPS. The police didn’t even feel there was enough evidence to arrest him, let alone charge him. It’s absolute rubbish to say that there must have been loads of evidence but the CPS nixed it because it never even got as far as the CPS.
Apparently the police do send certain charges to the police without an arrest like minor traffic offences or fraud. But not sexual offences. They can seek advice from the CPS on the investigation but the CPS can’t stop the investigation. The police didn’t find the evidence compelling enough to do further investigation like searching his hone or taking his devices. All the indications are that the evidence is very weak. No arrests, no further investigation, no searches and only one interview.

Nihal was on someone’s show yesterday and he said it’s a very small industry and if people are wrong ‘uns people know and there are whispers in the corridor and it’s an open secret and this has been the situation with all the recent high profile cases. But he said he’s worked with Scott for many years and he’s never heard a bad word said about him.

It’s also being reported that the BBC decided to sack him because he pushed back hard against the allegations which he would if he would if he was innocent.

Saying a file would have been sent tothe CPS and they decided not to prosecute without him even being arrested is well wide of the mark.

This is entirely wrong. The police can, and do send cases to the CPS for sexual offences. It's actually quite common, especially with historic cases. It can sometimes be for advice on charging but with historic cases it's usually because there isn't going to be a compelling amount of physical evidence.
It bleeping annoys me when people come on these threads and start spouting utter bull with such authority.

The Mirror is reporting that new evidence has emerged in the case, so it’s possible that the police investigation will be reopened.

Are you arguing against the statement the Met put out? 😵💫

Teenager in the 80s too and back then out in the town drinking, no ID required, looking over 18 but around 16. I think with girls we can look much older and who are older men to question it though I know people are much more wary these days. I knew of two girls my age who were considered slappers back then but they thought it was cool to sleep with much older men who were aware of their ages, one of whom was a father himself. Now I look back and think shame on the men for taking advantage of clearly vulnerable girls who were under 16 at the time. How could a father do this to a young girl when he had a daughter too?
That's it. When clubbing we trust the door men to do their job correctly and keep out those underage. We aren't going to ask someone in a club if we can see their photo ID to kill the mood. Women especially can easily make themselves look way older with make up and clothes. It would be quite easy for someone to end up kissing someone who shouldn't be in there, especially with booze involved.

There has always been underage sex stories in the press about people getting picked up on nights out.

The serious sexual offences were over a 3 year period, it seems unlikely that all took place within a dark nightclub setting, where Scott Mills mistook an under 16 for someone of a similar age to himself.

Maybe because back in the day, nothing got done about celebrity predators but the worm has finally turned & they are now being held accountable? Perhaps the accuser watched the Huw Edwards dramatisation, and it triggered them to speak up again?

But have they went to the papers?

Edit: to add, I personally would never judge someone for not contacting the relevant authorities about something that happened many years ago at the time. Sometimes it can take many years process things and at the time you may not identify that what has taken plan has been wrong. It’s only years later you can view differently and say to yourself “hold up, that was actually really wrong”.

They did.

As for why again now, could be any number of reasons. Something triggered them? maybe more evidence was found.
Victims sould feel free to come forward whenever they want imo.

There are a million reasons why people don't come forward sooner, many of which have been discussed numerous times in relation to various different cases. Having worked with survivors, this question alone is quite damaging, but always comes up. It's really disheartening.

If it's a genuine question, please do a bit of research on the subject.

Because they've seen Philip Schofield, Huw Edwards, Russell Brand, Greg Wallace, Noel Clarke, Tim Westwood, Harvey Weinstein, Jeffrey Epstein, Andrew MBW, et al being held to account in recent years and feel like now their allegations would be taken more seriously?

No one ever used a fake ID so that they could sneak into a club with the intention of being the victim of a serious sexual offence. This is such a "Yeah, but what was she wearing?" victim-blaming attitude.
