Jimmy Savile's DJ colleague Teret jailed for 25 years for sex offences
Jimmy Savile's DJ colleague Ray Teret has been jailed for 25 years for historical sex offences against 11 women.
Former DJ Teret chose 'physically and emotionally immature' victims
Former DJ Ray Teret selected young girls who were both "physically and emotionally immature", the judge said.
Mr Justice Baker said Teret made his victims "feel special" and that they should "feel grateful" for having lost their virginity to him rather than anyone else.
Six of his victims were raped while five were "so awed" by Teret's celebrity status that they consented to having sex with him, the court was told.
The judge said: "All the girls were used for your own sexual gratification.
"My judgment is it is not near coincidence that each of those girls were between 13 and 15 when you abused them ... I am sure you have a sexual interest in girls of that age."
