Former Lostprophets singer Ian Watkins, a despicable pedophile, found himself in critical condition after being stabbed in the neck by fellow inmates in the UK’s HMP Wakefield prison. This savage attack took place while Watkins was being held hostage by three other prisoners, who clearly had a bone to pick with him. It’s no surprise that Watkins has a “target on his back” given the horrific crimes he has committed against innocent children.
The prison officers had to call in a team of specially-trained riot officers, known as the “Tornado” team, to rescue Watkins from his captors. They used stun grenades to break up the hostage situation and save the disgraced singer. It’s a good thing they acted swiftly because Watkins was surely in fear for his life.
The attack on Watkins lasted a grueling six hours before he could finally be freed. The fact that he was attacked on a Saturday, when there are fewer staff members on duty, suggests that this assault was planned in advance. It’s chilling to think that there are individuals within the prison system who are willing to go to such lengths to harm another individual. However, it’s hard to have sympathy for Watkins, considering the monstrous crimes he committed.

Despite the severity of his injuries, Watkins is expected to survive. He has been transferred to a hospital in Leeds for further treatment. This news is yet another reminder of the depravity that exists in the world, and why it is crucial to protect our children from predators like Watkins.
It is sickening to think that Ian Watkins was once a member of a popular band, using his fame to exploit and harm innocent children. It is the duty of society to ensure that individuals like him face the full extent of the law and that our justice system serves justice. This incident serves as a reminder that even behind bars, evil still exists. It is essential for prison authorities to take the necessary precautions to protect inmates and prevent such attacks from happening again.
