Stuart Hall, the former BBC presenter, who has been jailed after admitting assaulting young girls
Stuart Hall will serve barely two weeks in prison for each of the young girls he sexually abused.
The sentence prompted a wave of outrage and fury last night, with victims saying it made a mockery of their horrific ordeal and politicians and campaigners condemning it as 'incredibly lenient'.
The disgraced “It's A Knockout” presenter, 83, was jailed for 15 months yesterday after admitting that he indecently assaulted 13 girls between 1967 and 1986. His youngest victim was nine.
Under sentencing rules, Hall will be released automatically after serving just half the term.
The Attorney General has already been forced to agree to review the sentence after being inundated with complaints.
He was last night examining whether it was 'unduly lenient' and should be referred back to the Court of Appeal.
When Hall was first arrested last December, he told police his victims were all lying as part of a “vendetta going on against people in the public eye.”
But the publicity led to more women coming forward, and in April the married father of two finally admitted to 14 counts of indecent assault.
