Now he's in no position to name other people involved, everyone is free to talk about what he did. The public probably just thinks it was him, and a handful of other celebrity sickos, ignoring the police, judges and politicians involved.

Exactly. The other celebrities are providing a useful smokescreen.
It's alleged that Savile supplied boys from a care home to Edward Heath (former PM) to abuse on his yacht. Those boys subsequently disappeared. Yet the media, and by extension the public, are not demanding an investigation into Heath's activities, because that would blow the lid off the whole system.
