          Glitter was a "sexual predator" who took advantage his star status to target young girls - Det Ch Insp Mick Orchardhttp://bbc.in/1DJ7WrA

          Hi @BBCBreaking FYI "having sex with girl under 13" is called RAPE. Not sex, rape. Children don't have the ability to give consent.

          No @BBCBreaking Glitter is not a "sexual predator", Sex isn't an attack, he is a sadist and a rapist. Stop sugar coating for paedosadists.

          @danbunting @EVB_Now @Passie_Kracht @amy_clemens @BBCBreaking but since she's legally incapable of consent, it's "rape".
