Shameful yet again. Rolf Harris is INNOCENT. Cliff Richard is INNOCENT. These accusers just want their cash. Greedy and disgusting. Clear the innocent stars.
I hope the police take back all the stolen priceless paintings he has hiding about. Jill Dando was going to report on priceless stolen painting by the elite people
Paul Rosenberg (29 December 1881 – 29 June 1959) Still has 70 paintings missing from his art collection. The search will never end…. You have cut a angry nerve.
