The accusation is that Schofield essentially groomed the young man. Now there is no accusation of any underage sexual activity, but there is certainly a power dynamic. Schofield being the person in position of power and wielding influence, enough to get this young man a job and screen tests on This Morning.
The implications being, if this was a man in his late 50’s doing this with a 16yr old girl, well ……say no more.
It’s also alleged that it is the affair with this teenager, as he would have been a few years ago, that forced Schofield to come out, of which he was lauded for being so “brave” by everyone. Even though he was a razors edge away from noncing it.
So those that claim “nope” and nothing to see here, are collegiate in the study of wilful blindness.
