Deborah Cogger, told her story about how Jimmy Savile groped her to BELLA magazine.
Deborah was just 14 and at an ‘approved school’ when Jimmy Savile came to visit one day. It was then he groped her. Deborah’s story had appeared on the front page of THE SUN newspaper when she contacted Featureworld for help. She’d been inundated with media requests and didn’t know which way to turn.
We took control and her story was placed with ITV THIS MORNING followed by this feature over two pages in BELLA mag.
Far from coming out only recently to tell her story, Deborah has been trying to get it out there for years. She had actually spoken with THE SUN months ago before she knew of any allegations from others. But like everyone they’d initially been reluctant to print for fear of dishonouring Sir Jimmy Savile’s memory.
So for Deborah – to finally get her story out there – this has been the something she never thought would happen.
