Former Lostprophets Singer Ian Watkins Stabbed In U.K. Prison
Former Lostprophets Singer Ian Watkins Stabbed In U.K. PrisonFormer Lostprophets singer Ian Watkins, who is serving a 29-year sentence for sex offenses, was stabbed in a U.K. prison yesterday (Aug. 5), according to Sky News. Watkins, who has been incarcerated for 10 years, is recovering from multiple “not life-threatening injuries” after being taken hostage by three of his fellow prisoners at HMP Wakefield.
According to the report, it took guards six hours to free Watkins, who was convicted in 2013 on 13 horrific charges involving children and animals. Welsh rock outfit Lostprophets, which had massive U.K. albums in 2004 with Start Something and two years later with Liberation Transmission, immediately broke up in the wake of his conviction.
