boyfriday Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 He's on suicide watch apparently. The prison officer assigned that duty suffers from narcolepsy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kirkbylad Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 Hope he lives to be an old man and serves every last minute of his sentence... he will serve a minimum of 2/3 as he is on an extended sentence, though i expect he will appeal and get this sentence reduced Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XXTickerXX Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 Not sure how true this is but...... Ian Watkins: Lostprophets singer describes his child sex abuse as 'megalolz' The paedophile singer said he wanted to release a statement saying 'I don't know what everyone is getting so freaked about' On November 27, the day after he admitted he was a paedophile, he said of the court hearing: "It was, like, either me go up there and say 'Come on, it wasn't that bad, nobody got hurt', I do my charm. Or do I end up making things worse for myself? Or do I just say I was off my head and can't remember?" Discussing his possible sentence, he added: "I'm going to put a statement on [December] 18th now just to say it was megalolz, I don't know what everyone is getting so freaked out about." "Megalolz" is a more exaggerated version of "lol", meaning "laugh out loud". In another conversation the following day he said: "It's so hard. There's a lot of ****ing meaningless bull**** like chat that I did to show off when I was ****ing off my head. "There was no medical evidence, nobody was harmed at all. "I'm not a paedophile, I'm not. You know I plead (sic) guilty just to avoid a trial, not realising 'Hang on, that makes me look a bit guilty' but I would never harm anybody." When asked if he would still issue a statement saying his conduct was "megalolz" he replied: "No, it's just lolz now." http://www.walesonline.co.uk/news/wales-news/ian-watkins-lostprophets-singer-describes-6417103 "I plead (sic) guilty just to avoid a trial, not realising 'Hang on, that makes me look a bit guilty' but I would never harm anybody." No, pleading guilty doesn't make you look guilty at all. Why would he think that!! Hope someone shouts 35 years LOLZ when they first see him in prison.

Plain Talker Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 it's a start, I suppose. it's good to see that a judge can actually hand down a realistic sentence for such awful crimes. I wonder if the warder greeted him at the prison doors with "Hahaha... Now 'LOLZ' you excuse for a human being!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ronthenekred Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 We're all paedophiles..genetically. He may have a point with "what's all the fuss about". After all it's in our DNA and we've outlawed something which is natural. Apparently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tzijlstra Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 I don't think it is enough. The man should be forced into therapy, not sure if that is part of the sentence? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amaranthus Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 This is not true. Why do people categorically state things like that when they have no idea whether it's true or not? I know for a fact it's not correct in at least one of the cases. These children have extended families who've done nothing wrong. Why should they be taken away from those people who are familiar and love them just because someone wants to put their names on the web? They will be identified by who their relatives are. Not that it really matters now. Poor little mites picture was still up on the web in some places till at least yesterday. According the the sentencing remarks released today they will be placed in 'long-term foster care', this doesn't sound like the relatives are going to be raising them does it.
