84-year old Australian-born singer and artist Rolf Harris has been found guilty of all twelve counts of indecent assault on four underage girls, between the 1960s and 1980s.  Jurors agreed with the prosecution’s contention that the affable entertainer was a “Jekyll and Hyde” character who took advantage of his fame.

Prosecutors successfully argued Harris used his “status and position” to abuse his victims, one of whom was a childhood friend of his daughter.  That woman testified that he groomed and molested her from the age of 13 until she was 19-years old.  Prosecutors produced a letter Rolf had written to her father years later that they said amounted to a confession. 

A second witness said Rolf groped her at an event in Cambridge when she as 13 or 14 years old.  Rolf denied ever going to that city until after 2010.  But that claim crumbled when prosecutors dramatically uncovered archival footage of him taking part in a celebrity game show in 1978.

The damning evidence and testimony kept piling up.  An Australian woman swore that Rolf assaulted her at a home in Darwin in the late 1960s.  She was only 11 or 12 years old at the time.

The judge wants to see a medical report on the 84-year old before pronouncing sentence, which is scheduled for Friday.
