DJ Chris Denning, infamous for his association with Jimmy Savile and disgraceful history of child sex offences, has passed away at the age of 81. Denning, who gained fame in the 1960s on BBC Radio 1, was serving a prison sentence for 21 historical child sex offences.
The disgraced DJ’s demise occurred on June 24, 2022, at Bedford Hospital due to complications from osteomyelitis—a bone infection linked to Type 2 Diabetes, as confirmed by the coroner. The news of his death surfaced this week following the release of a report by the prison and probation ombudsman investigating the circumstances surrounding his passing.
