I only know the very basics of what he was charged with and that's more than I ever needed to know, can't imagine what a jury must have been subjected to.

Yeah, you really don't want to know any more than that. It is one of the worst list of offences I've come across.

Weirdly, loads of women will still sending him fan mail in prison apparently. Derranged.

what Ian Watkins did was one of the most horrific things I've ever read about. Parents of the kids involved enabled him to do it which was f*cking mindblowing.
And legally they were not allowed to be identified... They have probably settled back into society and have resumed somewhat of a normal life

I used to work with an ex-Wakefield prison officer when I lived up North - Bare in mind if you are in Wakefield you are bottom of the barrel scum and the worst that society has to offer, probably serving 20 years+ - She said namechecked the two prisoners she encountered in her time that made her utterly sick the most in her interactions with them, one being Watkins and the other Mick Philpott

Watkins apparently still received fan mail for years after he was put away

What was going on in these interactions if you don't mind me asking?

I didn't press her too much, but she said that whilst they are scum most lifers just kept their heads down and try to stay out of trouble as they are always looking over their shoulder, particularly if they have been convicted of crimes involving a child

But she said Watkins loved his his notoriety and fame, the fact that somehow he still had a core of fans of his music on the outside and as mentioned earlier was still receiving fan mail and proposals of marriage in the post - and that he was still a wealthy man through monies accumulated in royalties

And she said Philpott (He was the bloke from Derby who torched his house and killed his kids) was a complete narcissist who had convinced himself it was a sham trial and how one day the person who killed his kids will be brought to justice and he will be a free man and they will make a movie about his life

Didn't really ask much more else, can imagine she had some stories to tell but didn't know her well enough to ask for anymore
