The BBC and Lord Janner

This BBC article has the following biography of the paedophile Lord Janner.

• Born in Cardiff in 1928
• Served in the Army and studied at Cambridge before becoming a barrister and then QC
• Labour MP for Leicester North West and then Leicester West from 1970 until retiring in 1997, when he was made a life peer
• Diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease in 2009
• Suspended from the Labour Party in April 2015
• Ruled unfit to stand trial over allegations of child sexual abuse on 7 December 2015
• Died two weeks later, aged 87

Nothing much there to explain why he should have so miraculously escaped prosecution for his crimes. Or, explain why he was given a peerage when he should have been given a prison sentence.

Here are a few more biographical details that the BBC clearly didn't consider relevant.
