Handcuffed Hall to face 15 rape charges: Shamed presenter brought from jail to court

Stuart Hall has appeared in court
to face 15 charges of rape and one
of indecent assault

Disgraced broadcaster Stuart Hall was led from prison to court in handcuffs yesterday to face new charges of raping two young girls.

The 83-year-old, who is currently serving a 30-month jail term for sexually abusing 13 girls over a period of nearly 20 years, was charged with more historic sexual offences last month.

The latest claims relate to two alleged victims aged between 11 and 16 at the time of the offences.

He is said to have committed seven counts of rape against one girl between January 1976 and September 1978 in Manchester when she was aged 16 and under.

Hall is also accused of eight counts of rape and one count of indecent assault against a second girl between 1976 and 1981 at various locations in Manchester and Cheshire.  (more...)
