London is fuelled by illegal drugs and booze.Inigo Philbrick, 34, was arrested in 2020 on suspicion of defrauding buyers out of more than £65million ($86million), with the artist since pleading guilty to the allegation.Documents supplied by Philbrick's legal team claim that his substance abuse intensified after he entered London's art world in his 20s.The court, which is due to sentence Philbrick next month on one charge of wire fraud, heard that the artist had a "reputation for hard drinking".The documents submitted to court state that "he would begin drinking alcohol at lunch and continued to do so throughout the day, often using illegal drugs as well".These documents also claimed that this was "how art deals are done".The British artists Gilbert & George gave the court a character reference of Philbrick, who they described as "a very talented, extraordinary, charming, honest and decent young person."Gilbert & George recounted meeting Philbrick when he was an intern at White Cube Gallery in South London in 2005, where he worked after moving from his hometown of Connecticut to study at Goldsmiths, University of London.Philbrick went on to run a gallery in Mayfair as well as Miami and has a daughter with Made in Chelsea alumni Victoria Baker-Harber.The artist has been in custody in the US since June 2020 on an island in the South Pacific, and had disappeared after his transatlantic Ponzi scheme fell apart.Philbrick had reportedly been selling the same artwork to different people, or selling individuals fractions of paintings.He also took out over £15million ($20million) in loans on paintings he did not own.The artist pleaded guilty at New York's southern district court to one count of wire fraud, with the offence

Jimmy Savile was one of the UK's most vile and disgusting paedophile predators.The TV presenter's crimes spanned over 40 years and some experts argue that there could be well over 500 victims.Savile used his status within the British establishment - he was knighted in 1990 - and his charity work to mask the rapes and sick abuse he committed throughout his life.The Jim'll Fix It man was suspected by the police as early as the 1960s, but the mishandling of evidence and the dismissing of witnesses meant that Savile built himself up to a place where he could readily abuse people at places like his BBC dressing room, or in Stoke Mandeville hospital where he was a volunteer.The Top Of The Pops presenter never faced the music for his vicious crimes, which according to one nurse also included him boasting about "mucking about" with corpses at Britain's notorious psychiatric hospital Broadmoor.Savile's horror crimes are investigated in a new documentary on Netflix called Jimmy Savile: A British Horror Story, streaming from April 6.When Jimmy Savile died in October 2011, tributes poured in from around the country and from politicians and celebrities alike.Prince Charles said in a statement: "The Prince of Wales and the Duchess of Cornwall are saddened to hear of Jimmy Savile's death and their thoughts are with his family at this time."The allegations against him were not widely known at the time, and he was given a large funeral in which mourners lined the streets.
