Ian Watkins from the Lostprophets is arguably the most evil person of all time. Here’s what happened to him this week in prison. #ianwatkins #lostprophets #scandal
Absolutely agree to that. Being big fan of someone is not an excuse to put a child in danger. Parents are supposed to protect them. I would not let my child to this kind of situation no matter who the person is and no matter how big fan I was. Word was because if an idol of mine would ask something like this, my fandom would die at that moment, no matter who it is. These mothers should have long sentences.And never allowed to see their child again or be in any contact . It would suck as an officer to free a sicko like Watkins.I can imagine how tempting it would be to just leave him. I can't read about this case because of its' brutality but wanted to watch this in hopes of hearing about some extra punishments. They have kept him well isolated from possible threats but eventually some chance had to come.Feel sorry for the guy sharing the name because it may get bad things happen to him. Watkins is scum whom world would well cope without.
The guy you were trying to think of's name was Gary Plauche. He is a hero in Louisiana. His preteen son took martial arts from some guy who wound up raping him, then kidnapped him. Plauche found out when his flight was coming in and waited for him by a bank of telephones. When the pedo walked by (under arrest), Plauche turned around, raised his .44 magnum and shot the pedo in the head killing him. He didn't spend one minute in jail. BRAVO!
I was like ten when that happened and we were watching the news that night. Dude got shot and the screen went black. Dad and I sat there stunned for a second and then Dad just shrugs his shoulders, says: "Well, c**ksucker had it coming" and then changed the channel. I will never forget that. 😂
Agree with you. But they should really get the death penalty. Don't normally agree with the death penalty but when it comes to abusing babies it makes my blood boil as I lost a newborn baby which I will never get over so the thought of someone abusing one of their own makes me feel sick.
Prison is bad enough, but if u have abused kids and end up in prison then u are a marked person, and will be looking over your shoulder every day. Don't rely on the prison officers to protect u either. Same goes for the women involved. They will also have to watch their backs as many of the women in prison are mothers who will be unhappy sharing space with these people.
@@tomf4087 Good! Your comment does help me feel that they may get the punishment they deserve. Thank you as I lost a newborn baby so this has really upset me that mothers of innocent babies could do this. It is horrific.
Anyone who has the audacity to say that the movie the sound of freedom is wrong, are probably involved in the sex trafficking of children. I have no sympathy for that person. That movie is based on facts, not emotions, it's not a right-wing nonsense to call tirade. It's truly what is going on. that is just the tip of the iceberg.
I often think about the woman who reported him to the police multiple times and was accused of being a vengeful ex. she really tried to stop this evil man.
@@yeetnama9094This. So many people that are being given the authority and paid to protect society are directly responsible for allowing monsters like Watkins to walk free.
These acts make prison violence look justified. There's far more unjustified prison violence happening, but since it doesn't look like justice, but horrifying violence, we don't hear about it.
Don't be so sure, too many fannies in jail scared of even involving themselves incase they get more jail time added to their own bit jail sentence. 💯 ✌️🙏🙏🙏✌️
As someone who was a child when she "met" five men who liked "hanging out" with kids, I hope Watkins suffers incredible pain every day for whatever remains of the rest of his life, As for the disgusting excuses of mothers, I'm sure the other female inmates "take care of" them on a daily basis as they too are mothers, grandmothers, sisters...
@@RebbeYehoshuahLamberti That's a pretty weird thing to ask on youtube. Why would you want pictures? Even if it's not true, what she says, and I believe what she says is true, how would showing evidence help you. Let's just hope it has been in court already and not open any more wounds and such.
Exactly. I agree. Hopefully, they live in pain and misery since it's not an option. Sadly, there are more of them outside of prison than in. Even this guy, a woman who was his friend of sorts, was constantly telling the police about him and they would do nothing. At one point, she had even taken some of the stuff off his computer to take to the police and they even tried to charge her with it when all she was trying to was get him locked up! The majority of L.E shouldn't be in their jobs.
This man literally said to a victim's mom, that he wanted that little girl to feel, and to know that her only existence was all about getting her parents off. Absolutely horribly disgusting. I'm glad he is aware that his only existence at this point entails being a punching bag for entertainment. I would say that's karmic Justice at its finest.
He's been attacked before, just never this bad. Monsters like this are basically quarantined in the UK in their own prison wings where they get placed with like minded rats, hence there aren't as many attacks on these vile people as we'd all like there to be.
You know what stfu about what you don't know about. I could tell you about a bunch of actual scum of the earth and ian is NOT a vile person he's a great person and I'll always support him. Can't tell me nothing 💯 😂
I went to Ozfest specifically to see Lost Prophets when I was 15. I never met Ian Watkins but a fully grown man tried to get me to go back to his tent with him, in their mosh pit. I told him I was a kid but he said he didn't care. I remember it being really weird vibes there. After all this stuff came out about him, I always wondered if he had some kind of following that knew of his proclivities and shared them.
Oh absolutely! He was very open about his attraction to underage girls, which is why I don't believe for a second that his band mates didn't know about it. They looked the other way because they knew their band couldn't survive without him. They put the lives of children at risk for fame and fortune. They are just as guilty
There were reports made about his child s*x crimes as early as 2008 and they were ignored. He finally got caught when the cops found photos on his phone after a drug bust. He pleaded not guilty and was released again. After his 3rd arrest on drug charges in 2012 the cops finally decided to search his computer & found images of kids. The South Wales PD basically admitted to not investigating as they should have and apologized & thats about it. Those cops should have lost their jobs. I'm surprised he lasted this long as he was a target the minute he walked in the prison.
I’m shocked he’s survived as long as he has in prison without anyone attacking him. I don’t really believe in violence, however, the world is much better short of that monster.
Apart from her Bestie Philly, isn’t the Not so innocent Willy booby’s , other dubious long term bestie, TV presenter, Fearne Cotton, who appeared with her on the lewd Tell lies vision show, Celebrity juice, which was produced by Willy booby’s hubby’s media production company , allegedly? Isn’t Fearne Cotton related to former Top BBC tell lies vision executive, Bill Cotton, who held the helm during the early Sa vile era , allegedly?

Didn’t Fearne cotton, conduct a controversial interview with Whistleblower Peaches Geldof, who suddenly committed suicide, under dubious circumstances allegedly?
Lots of moms "rent" their kids to keep a man around. My ex had a horrible experience because her father was in the Navy and was on submarines. Dad sails out and Mom's pervy boyfriend would move in. Four daughters in the family 😡
i won a meet and greet in London after their concert in the wembley arena, i think it was around 2007. Ian was a total and complete piece of shit. Rude, uninterested and just flat out mean to us and to his own bandmates! ( it was around 30 fans or so). Most of us literally flew to london from all around Europe. The other 4 guys really tried to make it a fun experience, and i remember feeling sorry for them because it was all so incredibly painful and awkward. i very much remember how sad is was after being confronted with who my idol really was. Never listened to the band ever again, and i was a HUGE fan.
As I do agree w you I kinda want him to live through this but in pain. I want him to be conscious enough to think of his actions of how at one point he had it all and the trauma he has caused but to be in unimaginable pain if that makes sense. I feel if he were to die then that would be the easy way out. Just my opinion
I've read other stories where bands who supported Lostprophets have said they saw him hanging around underage girls and they had heard the rumours, so I don't buy it that his band members were oblivious to how he was.
It would be controversial if inadequate women, who commit such crimes or neglect of children, are sterilised as part of the process in order to never bring more innocent children into the world. Children deserve to be cherished.
And sterilized so they can't bare anymore. There's alot of women who can't have children and deserve to have them more than the filth involved with this scum. Peace!
No matter the amount of control asserted over you would any Normal mother hand over her children to a predator. You could threaten my life and I still wouldn’t do this. Those women are as messed up in the head as he is.
I just saw a short video from Mike the truck driver on RU-vid reporting how when he was it a rest stop at 2 in the morning he witnessed some people a man and a woman taking some kids out of the back of a truck out of a locked cage and he called the police and the police told him to chase after the car the truck until they could get there and they got them! We all need to be vigilant and keep an eye on the kids and protect them even if they're not our own kids! Thank you Andrew for all that you do! You are a fantastic person and I enjoy your channel!

I wouldn't do anything irl, but in a book I'd probl remove his tool, but not the round ones, so he had no way to get his rocks off, but still had the drive...
He's probably in some form of protective custody, making it more difficult to find opportunities to cross paths with him. We have that in the U.S. for high-target prisoners. However, there is always time when the prisoner is moved, goes to the yard for exercise, goes to medical, etc. Guards can be bribed, or they may hate the inmate enough to look the other way. It may have been a real game of strategy to get near him, but they did. And as Andrew says, he may have been attacked before, but we just didn't hear about it.
The exgirlfriend kept taking this stuff to police for years and they wouldn't even look at the stuff. Then threatened her with arrest because she was "harassing him" Took years to get some one to do anything. Welsh police to deflect blame off their incompetence arrested her for the images she had that she was trying to get them to look at to stop him. Excellent details on this on Dreading website. It was of course demonitised because of content.
That’s one of the most important parts of this story. Multiple officers in the unit that dealt with the ex girlfriend were SO misogynistic in attitude that it distorted their professional judgement for FOUR YEARS. She repeatedly warned them about what was going on and took them evidence, some of which they never even looked at. He was only eventually arrested because of an investigation into drugs smuggling. The whole unit which investigated sexual crimes clearly had a massive problem with ingrained misogynism, which meant they were not listening to or taking the reports of female complainants seriously. They simply dismissed Watkins ex (and several other female complainants) as unreliable. We’ve seen this before in other police forces - women and girls making complaints which are not listened to or taken seriously, and as a result the abuse continues for many more years. The solution is to deal with institutionalised misogyny in the police force. For a start, there should be severe consequences for police employees who fail to substantially follow up a report of abuse of children.
@@Tess78uklet's not use strong words like being misogynistic, he was a celebrity and the police are always cautious when it comes to celebrities, let's be honest most of them get away with hanus crimes just like the ones in Epstein island. They must have thought she's harrassing him because she's his ex, but what they failed to acknowledge she actually was willing to present them with evidence but I guarantee you if he wasn't a celebrity they would have looked straight into it, Also another reason Joanne was a sex worker previously, that could have also been a reason,we know what happened with jimmy saville, it's nothing got to do with gender, it's about status, power and corruption. Well he can hide from the law but not god and this demon got what he deserved and today justice really got served. Hopefully if he survives I hope they take another crack at it, this man is Jimmy saville 2.0. you should see his statement, they are online, they haunted me. His part of the club like Jimmy saville and Philip Schofield, the police at the end eventually did their job and put this monster away but it could have been avoided earlier, nothing to do with misogyny, just incompetence and scarcity. Not all police officers are men but most are and secondly if it was a woman police officer, would you call her mysogynist.
@@Tess78ukyou are right but forgot the part where the main reason the police didn't take her seriously wasn't just because she was his ex but because she was a SW. They didn't want anything to do with her due to her profession so wouldn't even take 30 seconds to look at the video and photo evidence she brought in.
@AutumnsFlameDances I think they even at one point were giving HER into trouble for bringing some of the child sexual abuse images with her because they would not believe her so many times beforehand!. If it wasn't for her he could have done a lot more. I honestly think it was because she was not only a woman but a woman who was a sex worker, they wouldn't listen. They should have lost their jobs.
@@AutumnsFlameDances they Also never released the identities of the fans he dated, they had minors and allowed him to abuse their minors. Those women should have also been exposed.
My uncle was a prison officer back in the 50’s and 60’s. I remember him telling me some of the ways that type of prisoner were treated by the other prisoners, and so many of the guards didn’t really intervene very quickly.
Knew him fairly well in the mid-late 90's when he was the drummer for South Wales hardcore band Public Disturbance. South Wales had a very small alternative music scene back then and everyone knew everyone. He was a twat then, and I can confirm from the Whatsapp groups I am in that everyone here in South Wales has been waiting for ten years with baited breath for the news he's dead. A couple of us may have had a celebratory beer yesterday... the champagne is still on ice though.
South Wales also.. I have never been so pleased to hear the news he had been attacked.. Im just sorry they didnt finish him.. Every person i told have said the same thing..👏 Makes me sick that we pay for him to be looked after. They will never reform as soon as they get out they go straight back to it.. The only ways is to remove them.
Any other interesting stories about Wantkids from when you know him? Also, is his mother still alive and if so, does she still visit him? I don't know how a parent could keep contact with their kid after something heinous like thus. Those poor, poor nurses who had to look after him.
Yes, we’re talking one year olds. Many unfortunately like him around. He got caught (Thank God) because he was famous. The police didn’t take any notice of the girlfriend when she kept reporting him.
Even here in Australia this animals' crimes were big news at the time. I wouldn't normally applaud violence....but honestly I'd buy the guys a drink. And those "mothers"? They deserve to be in gaol for the rest of their lives. We don't need any more of these sickos out here.
IW was brought up near to where we live. Unlike a lot of offenders, he didn't present a more socially acceptable face to the world to hide what he was. His personality was always repellant and he was a total chore to deal with for even the most basic interactions. I'm guessing that he singled out women who had considerable cognitive deficits, because he was never a person that you'd willingly spend time with. I'm not saying this with hindsight. He was always seriously creepy.
@@sarathelwell6701 His family are normal people, maybe even nicer than normal people. We have family who were at the same school at the same time, but none in the same class/ year. There's an article in Wales Online (dec 2013) that you can look at. It doesn't say much about him as a person because there's nothing to say. He wasn't interested in other people and didn't connect. Different generation from me. I only met him once because we took on a building that the band had used for recordings. That would have been about 6 months before he was arrested. It seems that over the previous year, the people he worked with had moved without bothering to give him their new address. That says a lot about how they felt about him.
I was gutted when I heard about how awful Ian Watkins is. I grew up on nu metal and loved lost prophets. I'd forgotten all about them in my adulthood and then one day I was feeling nostalgic and thought I'd look for lost prophets on RU-vid and watch a few reaction channels. That's when I discovered about all this and I was so appalled I haven't listened to them since. Absolutely disgusting.
I really liked the band too. I actually felt really bad for the rest of the band losing everything they worked hard for. But Watkins really does deserve whatever comes.
Just a quick thought after reading your comment. -That’s how I feel about Tom Cruise’s movies, I’ll never watch one again now, knowing what Scientology is.
I'm American and in 2013/2014 i was not following British News as much as I do now. I didn't know who Ian Watkins was until I started watching this video. But when you mentioned Peaches G and how she had tweeted out the names of the mothers and then you mentioned that she was DEAD... Well, is it ONLY me who thinks that these two things MIGHT be connected? 😳 Easy to make it look like an od. Just like Isaac Kappy...🤔 Who OUTED Tom H and Isaac actually went on 🐦 and said "I am NOT S****dal".... And then he "un-alived" himself! And Joan Rivers saying that Obama was gay and Michelle Obama was a "tr@**y" (oh and SURPRISE! That letter from Obama's old girlfriend that JUST came out this week... Aug 2023 said he told her that he "fantasized about g@y $€x") 🙄 .....and then TWO WEEKS LATER, Joan Rivers died from an issue with the drug/oxygen mix during surgery....🤔🤔🤔 JUST SAYIN'
Aww..another conspiracy theorist??? Come on🎉...lay it on us...who really killed JFK....or is he really still alive...being kept on an island..in a vegetative state? I guess he could be dead by now....or did they freeze him????
There’s a Danish music producer that has just been arrested in California for buying s** with children. He was caught in a FBI honey trap. What’s up with those people? We can not mention his name here in Denmark, but his name and arrest order is out in the USA.
@anthonyfurlong4972 Except he didn't. But once a person gains a certain amount fame and fortune they are often protected by sycophants and those making money from them.
Just shows who are being protected by these ceos of these platforms,especially when a mother couldn't get said platform to remove images of her young son being abused,absolutely disgusting
Not many channels covering this !?! Or is it being hidden in purpose..!?! Good on you AG for talking about this.. Surprised if didn't happen sooner.. He is a sick twisted individual and sadly there are many others like this who have yet to be exposed .. My heart goes out to those who have been treat like shit for trying to expose those who hurt these babies/children .. Something got to change.. FAST... 🙏
The terrifying thing is that there are many more like him hiding in famous plain sight, not caught. I didnt know that Peaches spoke out, her death at that time was shocking as she appeared regularly on tv and did not appear to be a user.
We can always hope that his brain went without blood just long enough for him to survive in "locked in syndrome". Karma sometimes accomplishes what the legal system doesn't allow.
The problem is that losing one's freedom is source of suffering, while death is an end to suffering. If Watkins dies, he finishes his sentence. Karma isn't what you think it is.
@@M2Mil7er sitting in adult daycare getting three hots and a cot is not sufficient suffering for those specific crimes. Sarcasm and hyperbole is a thing in human conversation Dwight. People that don't believe in reincarnation tend to not care about the literal usage of the word. 🤣
I CAN NOT BELIEVE A MOTHER WOULD GIVE UP HER LIKE THAT CHILD HOW DISGUSTING!! 💔💔 having children is a blessing something is really wrong with those women good they are in prison And on my goodness this “singer” is not a human being 😡 but karma is a bitch isn’t it ! great reporting Andrew Gold 💛💛💛
Mankind is wicked. Always has been. Even the best behaved people are imperfect and affected by our sinful nature in the heart. Jesus is the only way out of this fallen world. 🙏✝️
@@christoffesedao3579what a terrible and harmful view of humans. You are told humans are sick and this one branch of one religion out of thousands is the only cure. I can’t believe you can’t see through the con. If people were innately evil we wouldn’t feel such disgust at actual evil.
A truly dreadful man. As an aside, RU-vid censorship is getting beyond ridiculous "can't say this, can't say that" It's getting to the point where we won't be able to discuss anything serious.
I'm ashamed to say I knew him from school he was year older than me...I lost my v to him and my stomach just churns but nothing to know how he turned out 😢
@@hedleyrichards6341you speak as if he's so much of some kind of rock adonis that there's just NOOO WAAAAY this girl could've possibly had a history with someone of his stature smh what does that implication say about who YOU are or how you think that you could even insinuate she must be lying lol yeah ok. Why would anyone want to tell the world that they had such a history with someone this vile especially if it wasn't true?! I mean the shame that goes along with knowing someone you once cared enough about to lose your V card to went on to be a literal deviant monster is likely a very heavy thing definitely not something that most ppl would be chomping at the bit to say and in text form no less! I really hope that person isn't holding onto the existential shame that SHOULD be carried by Ian only he's the predator here.
I'm so glad Ian got real justice in jail. I hope the two women who prostituted their own children will get the same fate. I am also glad these women got long sentences, as if they only got a year or two no doubt they'd try it again on their still very young children. It will also stop them from getting pregnant again.
Andrew has stated multiple times on his platform that he doesn't 'believe in evil'! So it seems that whilst he concedes that people like Watkins are awful/horrendous, his abominations can all be sheltered under the umbrella of psychopathy and 'inclinations'! Nope, not good enough since this level of abomination is evil; nothing less! 'The greatest trick the devil ever pulled was convincing the world he doesn't exist'! (Charles Baudelaire).
Being a Christian doesn't make you good by default, it makes you superstitious by default. It's a myth, just like Hercules. Grow up. The devil isn't real. Neither is Santa Claus.
@@EmpyrionBlackthorn Believe as you wish. Telling people who have different beliefs than your own that they're superstitious or deluded speaks to a Cluster B personality trait. Just a thought.
Shaun Attwood said that in U.S. prisons as soon as you go in, the other prisoners ask what your charges are, to find out if you are like Watkins, They then do a kos (kill on sight) if the answer is yes.
I had never heard of this story so I watched another channel to get the details - and words you can't say. The woman that was accused of being a abuser too tried to get the police to listen to Ian crimes for over 4 years! Instead of listening to these crimes, they discounted her accusations with evidence. The whole case was appalling. I can't believe he didn't get life in prison. Peace to those he abused.
That lady should be commended, if you read the details of everything she did to try to get all the evidence in front of the police who were disregarding her because he was a celebrity, disgruntled girlfriend etc, she definitely was the hero in this horrific and unfortunate story...
Couldn't happen to a nicer person! Hope the guys that held him hostage were given an extra dinner that day 😁 Funny hearing you say Lostprophets weren't a very big band because they were MASSIVE in my late teens/early twenties in the metal/goth/punk scene. They were played everywhere we went, had some real floor fillers. Lifetime ago.
You may not be allowed to say the word pedophile, but I can. I can also say that experts have now linked the rise in porn directly with the rise in pedophilia. Since Hefner normalized mass porn with Playboy more than 50 years ago, porn has grown exponentially in line with pedophilia. Experts say one in three porn addicts are at risk of becoming pedophiles. Let’s start talking openly about this subject. It’s impacts on children demand that we speak.
All the research that l'm aware of suggests that paedophilia and psychopathy have a significant genetic component and that one cannot become either as a result of social influence.
Confirmation bias -- you see a rise in both and believe they're linked. While there may be anecdotal evidence (and stories from creatures in human suits like Ted Bundy), I have seen no reputable studies linking pornography and child abuse. There are some known risk factors for future pedophilia, but as far as I'm able to find there is no link to porn. Merely saying that there is does not stand up to scrutiny.
He’s from just down the road from me in Pontypridd. It’s so heart breaking driving past very normal hotels in the area, knowing he committed the most atrocious crimes in there.
Slow suffering should be applied, and the deletion penalty should be brought back for these people. The inmates really served that justice immediately..
Absolutely. I can imagine that they had their own feelings about this guy. This sort of thing was probably only a matter of time, and it sounds like those six hours weren't much fun for him.
When you said the name, my mind initially went to 'H' from Steps and I was shocked beyond belief, then pretty quickly I realised it wasn't him. I'm sure his name and photo being accidentally caught up in this has been quite distressing for him. Absolutely nobody deserves to be misidentified as someone like this monster. X
I remember when I first heard this story. I knew straight away people were gonna get him confused with H from Steps. Same name, both singers and both Welsh.
He did get a lot of backlash over this because a newspaper or magazine printed his picture next to a story about this. It's just painfully unfortunate that they share the same name and are both Welsh.
Those "fans" are fugging so so whack. That IS the worst thing EVER. Happened near where I live in SoCal, too. Good to hear prison code is the same jn England.
Another guy known as Britain‘s worst P word was recently r worded and tortured and ultimately unalived (to use all the YT friendly words I can) by another inmate who had seemingly gone into a psychosis and it was framed as an unusual mistake on the part of the prison guards that this was allowed to happen. Reading about this man at the time who was operating in SE Asia when he committed his crimes, having gone there in his early 20s, made me feel physically ill. I can’t say I was anything other than pleased that he was made to feel terror and complete powerlessness at the end. Some people you can’t describe as anything other than evil, the older you get the less you debate it. My late auntie Theresa, a Catholic, didn’t believe in hell, she always said hell is on earth and when we die we go to a better place. Let’s hope when we get there we can make sense of it all.
This is not hell. This is earth under the curse of sin. The reason it does not feel right is because this was never intended. We were not created to comprehend or endure the consequences of sin. That’s why life is painful. We are under the curse but we no longer have to be. God is not impressed with even the best behaved people on earth cuz they are still imperfect at heart. But by Faith in Jesus we can be cleansed and reconciled back to The Most High. Jesus was sent to break the curse, conquer death and hell. Through Him we are freed from this curse and the coming punishment of hell. If you think we as sinners go to a better place when we die then you have been deceived. Only through Jesus can we be saved from hell and be with The Father. Blessings 🙏✝️
My partner is a prison officer. 95% of cons on his wing are sex offenders. The other 5% of cons are there for their own safety for whatever reason. As Watkins is doing time at Wakefield prison which is a category A prison, he will on the VP (vulnerable prisoner) wing, Those on the VP wing are kept separate from the other prisoners at ALL times. This is for their own safety. Their association, gym, showers, work etc are all separate from the other prisoners. it is possible that the other prisoners who attacked him are also sex offenders. Let me explain. Believe it or not there is a hierarchy among sex offenders. Those who have committed sex offences against children are the lowest of the low. Those who have committed sex offences towards men or women see themselves as above child sex offenders. It is possible that those who attacked Watkins may have been put on the VP wing for their own safety. This could be due to a drug debt that they cannot pay, or they may have grassed on someone and therefore they have been put on the VP wing. These are are a couple of examples as to why 'normal' prisoners get put on the VP wing. So were the attackers sex offenders or 'normal' prisoners? It is also possible that Watkins may have been had a 'slap' before now and as it had been a minor incident, we wouldn't have heard about it. I did say to my partner that I don't know how you can deal with sex offenders as I would be wanting to go at them for their crimes. He said that you have to switch off, I couldn't. He hates the beasts as much as the next person but he can't show that he hates the beasts. Some prison officers won't come on the wing where my partner works. They will stand at the door and wait for the prisoner to be brought to them. I could go on and on.
Horrifying thank goodness I never heard of him until now i am so sickened by him!! Holy molly pure evil can exist thankfully karma got him Respect to those inmates who took care of it. I hope they don’t get punished. Those women are unthinkable how are they not in prison for life ?
@@jennyj0007 we have Subway Jared and Larry Nassir here in the states and those two are more than enough. Although the later just took 10 stab wounds so these people get what they deserve sooner or later.
I didn't realise the trial was ten years ago. That means Watkins has already served a third of his thirty year sentence. Let's hope they extend it, that man should never be let out.
The cops failed to investigate after his girlfriend brought consistent evidence via a laptop and phone recordings of images for 4 years !!.Yes they charged her for possessing evidence against him of child images.She was ,after brought to trail found not guilty by a jury.NONE of the police officers were charged with negligence that led him to continue abuse for 4 years and only went to his house to investigate a drug crime.So if you suspect a p is abusing kids accuse him of doing drugs and maybe it will lead to a conviction.
@@daviddeida thank you, its bizarre.. It doesn’t make sense. You would think the police would have been delighted with the proof (handed to them on a platter!) that they needed to bring a case against him. and not even investigation into the police lack of interest /incompetence? Geez the mind boggles. His ex girlfriend must be made of stern stuff to persevere how she did.
What is RU-vid doing, where a man can do such unimaginable things. Yet this man can not say some words to describe what he did. IMO RU-vid is let the people down. What is happening to this world.
I have always been told even in prison there is a code. People in prison who have committed crimes against children deserve whatever they get especially if it comes from other prisoners!!
It's a myth tbh. Prisons are full of 'the worst' and no one really cares, everyone just gets on with it. Most attacks are due to cocky attitudes rather than crimes. Or a random nutjob lashing out.
The rest of the guys in the band would've had at least an inkling of what he was like. They were complicit along with their tour managers and everyone else getting paid by his fame.
I doubt it very much. Besides being a libelous statement without any evidence to support it, the rest of the band seem like stand up blokes, and dropped him instantly when this came to light. Watkins didn't start behaving in that way until the band was already successful, and almost certainly kept it well hidden from everyone, especially those closest to him. Are you complicit in the crimes of someone tangentially related to you?
That place is already occupied in Monster Mansion by Robert Maudsley. I suppose chucking Watkins in with him as his new cell mate is out of the question??
A woman kept telling police of his crime, and they ignored her. She secretly recorded him telling what he had been doing to children. On one occasion, she downloaded items from his laptop as proof. When she took it to the police, she ended up being charged with having child images
