Ex-Boys' Home Resident Exposes Paton's Paedophile Ring

0:00On May 1st, a former resident of a boy's home in Edinburgh dropped a bombshell at the Scottish Child Abuse Inquiry claiming Tam Patton, the ex-manager of the Bay City Rollers, was fully involved in a paid-of-fowering back in the early 1980s.
