Raymond Teret (24 October 1941 – 5 May 2021)[1] was an English radio disc jockey and convicted sex offender.
Teret was closely associated with fellow DJ Jimmy Savile in the early 1960s, sharing a flat with him and working as Savile's support DJ, assistant and chauffeur.[2] He joined Radio Caroline North in the mid-1960s. He later worked in a series of DJ- and media-related work, mainly on Piccadilly Radio in Manchester and Signal Radio in Stoke-on-Trent.
In December 2014, two years after Savile was posthumously exposed as a paedophile, Teret was convicted of rape and indecent assault, and was sentenced to 25 years in prison.[3] He died in prison in May 2021 at the age of 79, having served just over six years of his sentence.
