Lostprophets singer Ian Watkins has died after being attacked in jail, prison sources have confirmed.

The disgraced rock star from Pontypridd was serving a 29-year sentence at HMP Wakefield for child sex offences.

West Yorkshire Police said they were called to the prison on Saturday morning to an assault on a prisoner, who was pronounced dead at the scene.

Watkins was jailed in December 2013 for a string of child sex offences, including the attempted rape of a baby.

Police said detectives were investigating and enquiries ongoing at the scene.

Anyone want some coffee I'm heading out.



Eeekk I remember liking their music before and being utterly shocked. It really showed that pedos don't have a particular look. You would have a thought a good looking guy like that would not be depraved in any way shape or form but well...

I think it was it’s not the end of world I loved, it was a fav of mine when I was in college. Maybe I won’t feel guilty listening to it now that he’s dead

I mean good luck. I can't do it. When I find myself randomly singing Rooftop I cringe and condemn myself.


I'm also still mourning abandoning R Kelly's my body is calling. Use to adore that song :bawling:

R Kelly had quite a few decent songs, i loved his colab album with Jay Z, The Best Of Both Worlds, but yeah, just doesn't hit the same anymore. Same with Kelly's Ignition, that was a summer banger back in the day, but nah not anymore.

Yeah it’s nice to get these wonderful snippets of news


.. I had the same nice feeling on hearing that Jack the Ripper had died in prison … before that he was savagely attacked 4 times by fellow inmates which were also nice to hear about

Lets hope he suffered in death like that other notorious pedo who was killed in a UK prison not too long ago. (can't think of his name, and don't particularly wanna google either)

Ah yes not Jack


Peter Sutcliffe the Yorkshire Ripper


He was known as the modern day Jack the Ripper though

Has to have been one of the most depraved and monstrous people modern Britain ever produced. Some of those text messages disseminated through the press were the stuff of nightmares. A fittingly grizzly end to an unimaginably cruel man.

Yes, IIRC they were between him and one of his 'groupies' who was willing to give her baby over to him, knowing what he had planned for it.

Yeah, i think it was a youtube doc i watched on this case about 10 years ago. I don't (luckily) remember the other details, but i do remember that!

The groupie and mother of the baby was texting Watkins saying how she was "getting the baby ready" for him, and sent him pics of certain stuff. It was beyond evil and horrific.

I remember thinking at the time i wish i hadn't watched the doc on it.

I so hope he suffered a violent and painful death.

Controversially, I can still listen to Ignition.

…it’s hard to know what to say, I recall through the court case reporting, it all being too difficult to read….he was a monster and he remains a monster, that’s his legacy …

Somehow I think it would be better for him to be in there for 29 years, bullied and beat up, scared stiff.

Now he is 'at peace' in death. Not sure he deserved any kind of peace.
