Thank you! Can I ask how you did it? I'm not sure I have privileges, despite being a VIP old-timer, sob sob.

Anyway, do you think more will come out about this man? I'm shocked that his 'fiancee' has come forward, you'd think that person would not want anything about their identity or dealings with him to be known about at all. Did she sell that story for money, do we think?

When you go into the sub forum thing (ie on this one current events), I get a button in the top right to create a new thread!

I think we’ve heard all there is to know, to be honest - anything salacious would have come out around the time of the trial. But I could well be wrong. I hate seeing that pic of him in jail, he looks so sinister. I’m vaguely interested in whether he ever felt any remorse in any of it, even the way he was talking to that woman they’ve reported on today makes it seem like he thought he was gods gift.

I don't think he ever felt remorse. If he did, he would not have carried on grooming women in prison. I read an article yesterday where it stated that he continued to feel that he'd been 'done wrong' up till his last day and his delusions sent him insane.

I think anyone who does what he did doesn't give a tit about anyone but themselves. There were stories about groupies visiting him that looked young (they likely weren't but played up on it for him...at least I hope so) and what's come out shows that like Glitter who was caught with the smart phone days after his release, if he did get out, he would be right back at it.

Just marking my place here .. I’m a lover of everything true-crime, but this one gave me the proper shudders. Absolute sick individual.

Same here. Reading the judges sentencing remarks made me feel physically ill.
He is the lowest of the low. Actually make that WAS the lowest of the low. Oh well.

A depraved, subhuman, vile monster

I’m absolutely gobsmacked that he was able to make contact, and groom more women from inside a high security prison!! 😡 what on earth!


I’ve followed all this since the arrest in 2012. It’s one of the most horrendous cases I’ve ever had the misfortune of reading.

I was a big lostprohets fan back in the day. Went to see them many times, posters on my wall.

Met them all at a festival. The others were lovely guys…. Ian was a arrogant wick

Have you seen Lee Gazes twitter recently? He's vile, in my opinion! They seemed like nice lads but I have serious doubts about how nice they actually are and how much they actually knew. Apparently there were Internet rumours for a long time about how he 'liked them young' and I do wonder how much of a blind eye was turned to keep the money rolling in.

Just seen this

That's horrific. The guy asking the questions, is he a member of the band?

I think it's absolute madness he was allowed to have young female visitors in prison, given what he was convicted of. Of course he was going to try and groom them. I think woman A and woman B are as bad as him, but also think that there was a power imbalance given that he was famous, and he clearly groomed them in some ways. Not saying that as an excuse for what they did at all.

That mug shot of his stays with me, just looks dead behind the eyes.

I wondered this week if they would ever in time release an updated mug shot of him, in recent years.
I’d be interested to see just what he looked like in the end, what his time in prison did to him towards the end, appearance wise. He was always an arrogant hole and full of himself😡

I was happy to read his last prison attack left the b with nerve damage

This is what I couldn’t believe, given his crimes why was he given access to anyone outside? Why was it allowed? Seeing as he went on to groom more people from inside, and another child was taken away from another mother in 2017! 😡

How did he even have the opportunity to meet someone new from the outside? I thought you were only allowed a list of approved people to phone and visit such as family and friends that you already know. If he had these "groupies" visiting him why would that have been allowed given what he was in for?
Also wondering if there's already been a funeral?

Possibly not, they will still have to do an autopsy then release the body, then funerals can take up for three weeks (sometimes longer) to arrange. I should think it would be kept very quiet. I wonder if they will cremate him, lest his grave become a shrine to disturbed groupies or desecrated.

Yeah I suppose a lot of these things take a while especially when it's not been a death from natural causes. I wonder if they'll even announce anything to do with it. I can just picture all the groupies who went to visit him at it now 😳

This is a reply to the commenter that said they didn’t understand how / why IW mother had anything to do with him after what he’s done. I feel it’s very easy to be sat on the side lines stating what you would and wouldn’t do in that situation, until you’re actually in that situation. I have found out a very close friend of mine was caught with cat A CSA pics and videos on their devices and it’s broken my heart. I have not done this but everything in my being is telling me to call them, one minute I feel in denial like it must be a misunderstanding, are they ok? The next minute absolutely sickened because it’s true, no misunderstandings. Caught red handed with evidence and even pled guilty. It’s like mental torture, heartbreak and grief mixed into one. So god knows how it feels as a mother. She was likely highly manipulated by him too. I don’t even judge her you know, from her decline in the past 13 yrs after his arrest, he ruined her life too. He single handedly ruined so many peoples lives and had not shown not 1 bit of remorse.

IMO not a whisper should have got out to the press and he should be burried in the prison grounds. If you can get married / engaged in jail you can have your burial there too. Maybe he will get the Ian Brady treatment since the public outrage.
