Ian Watkins Gets 35 Years For Sex Offences - Yahoo News UK

I think I'm going to delete their songs from my phone. Which is wierd because I always listen to Rock And Roll Christmas by Gary Glitter at Christmas.

Disgraceful thing is, it's only really 20 years, the last 15 will be on lisence. Evil prick.

I wish he'd get castrated.

I'm torn about that. You already paid for it and you like it so why not enjoy it?

BUT, I would never ever ever support them in the future.

I don't know. I've never been confronted with something like that. There have been people (Kurt Cobain for example, but only because he was such an example for kids) that I thought did things that were awful but I still listened. But nothing even remotely this bad.

The thing is though, everytime one of them comes on, I can't help thinking about him and what he has done. I think with the Glitter one, I think about Christmas as opposed to him.

...one bullet would have been so much cheaper for the taxpayers...

Of course I feel for the victims first but I also feel terribly bad for his family. Imagine finding out that you have brought up such a monster.The rest of their lives they will be associated with his horrible crimes.
I think the mums who allowed him to do what he did should get just as long a sentence, what they did is possibly worse. Betraying their child when they were meant to be the people who cherish and protect them. It makes me sick.

I never even heard of them. Now they can rename the band Lost Profits.

 

[FlakeNoir]

I can't think straight when I think about what these people did... some things are just too much to bear, right?

His stepfather wants one hour with him in his cell, to kick his a**.
When stuff like this happens, I can't listen to the music anymore. Like Gary Glitter, I can't even look at pictures of him without feeling nauseous.

I completely agree. WHAT WERE THOSE MOTHERS THINKING????? There has been quite a bit of coverage over here in the UK about this. I swear to God, what sort of woman plans a "whole summer of abuse" on her own child.... How? Why? Just because he's a star? The details about this case have been heart rending. Apparently he texted one of the mothers during the trial, describing the trail as "Major lolz"... I hope he never gets out of jail alive.

Just out of curiosity: What did Kurt do that was so bad? I loved Nirvana, was going to see them too just before he 'killed himself' (IT WAS COURTNEY!!!! )

 

[Lisey Landon]

Ugh. I just read that R. Kelly also abuses young girls, then pays their parents off. Apparently, this has been known for a long time, but I just found out yesterday. And @mustangclaire, I have thought the same - how can they live with themselves?

Killed himself, setting an example for millions of angsty teens.

I still think he was murdered Still, people that commit suicide can't be held accountable, they are sick.
