His girlfriend tried so hard to report him over and over again and nothing happened. Even involving the parents of the abused children to get THEM to report too. It took years.

I loved "thefakesoundofprogress". It was different than conventional nu-metal bands in that it leaned more towards post-hardcore/emo.
Fortunately they kind of disappeared for a bit and resurfaced sounding like the shitty version of OneD. I didn't have to feel guilty listening to a band fronted by Peter Scully Jr.
Why is that fortunate?
... was made aware by Watkins that he was abusing a two-year-old child in California whilst the band was recording in Los Angeles.
I hope he's getting his ordeal in prison.
I just... how does a drugged up rocker boy get access to a 2-year old? How can such a thing even happen?
I refuse to click that link, but IIRC one parent was a groupie.
That piece of shit deserves to die in the least humane way possible. Slowly and painfully.
Don't Google his password.
I remember really liking the Lostprophets sound - some of the songs are absolute bangers - but the band and it's name are forever tainted now. What a massive shame for the other band members to have their livelihoods pissed out the window by some nonce.
I mean, it's a minor inconvenience compared the the lasting effects on the victims.
A horrible, horrible rabbit hole to go down.
edit: for the love of god, check which Ian Watkins you're googling too. The lad from Steps is a decent spud by all accounts.
Damn. Because too many will want to know after such an ominous statement: his password was "If***kids", without the censoring.
I feel like the actual things he did are worse than the password.
I agree. But somehow the password makes it even worse.
It'd be alright with me if he never made it out alive.
Not nearly enough.
