Try "Hebephile".

The "not a pedophile" tag is disputable. You might say hebes are pedes, hence hebephiles are pedophiles. Some might reply that in the past, the age of consent was twelve, and our extended youth is a modern construct.

I'm (relatively) okay with the idea of two 13-year-olds doing it. But a middle-aged adult, with the money and power and celebrity status, forcing himself upon youngsters, is straight up criminal.

I'd like to see this investigated. If upheld, Saville should be stripped of all titles, and I'd particularly like to see criminal charges against everyone who turned a blind eye or otherwise abetted this crap. Especially whoever was in charge of that reform school.

We have mandatory reporting of suspected child abuse here. Do you have that in the UK?
