Original Note:
Keir Starmer was the head of the CPS at this time, but he was *not* the reviewing lawyer for this case. https://fullfact.org/online/keir-starmer-prosecute-jimmy-savile/ Fact checkers have found no evidence that Sir Keir Starmer was involved at any point in the decision not to charge Savile. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/60213975
