Pedophile Rock Star Stabbed to Death in British Jail
Lostprophets singer Ian Watkins was sentenced to 29 years in prison for child abuse in 2013.
Two men have been arrested over the murder of Ian Watkins, the disgraced former frontman of the Welsh band Lostprophets, who was serving a 29-year sentence for child sex offences in a British jail.
“At 9.39am this morning, police were called by staff at HMP Wakefield reporting an assault on a prisoner,”
a statement from West Yorkshire Police said. Watkins was stabbed to death on Saturday at a jail in West Yorkshire, with his attacker thought to have slashed his jugular in the attack.
“Watkins has been killed in the most brutal way possible – and the attack was shocking, even by prison standards,”
a source told The Sun. The attack was carried out by another inmate who shanked him in the neck.
