Jeffrey, Can I ask you just to confirm that you are happy with the attached wording before I revert to James Henderson? Regards. Paul Dear Jeffrey, I wanted you to know with certainty, that many things said in the press about you that were attributed to me were either a totally malicious fabrication, or an outrageous exaggeration. I am aware that many years ago you pleaded guilty to prostitution related charges. There was never a claim of paedophilia by the authorities, me, or anyone else for that matter. The fact that you would not have been guilty of a criminal offence in the UK should have served to keep your record in context so far as the UK tabloids were concerned. You have been a loyal friend of my family for many years, and I am also only too well aware of your extensive charitable and philanthropic work. Although I do not in any way condone what you have done, the sensationalized characterization of you in the press as a paedophile has been grossly unfair and unjustified.
