Original Note:
Sir Keir Starmer was head of the CPS when the decision was made not to prosecute Savile but he was not the reviewing lawyer for the case. An official investigation commissioned later by Starmer criticised both prosecutors and police for their handling of the allegations. https://fullfact.org/online/keir-starmer-prosecute-jimmy-savile/
