Over the weekend, the world was elated to be taught {that a} horrific piece of sentient human filth as soon as often called Lostprophets frontman Ian Watkins was murdered whereas serving time in jail. It solely took 13 years into the 29-year-sentence he earned for committing a number of heinous intercourse acts in opposition to a number of youngsters, however in the long run he was stabbed within the neck and pronounced useless on the scene. One hopes it was no less than excruciatingly painful.
On the time, officers at HMP Wakefield solely gave the ages of Watkins’ alleged assailants. Now, only a couple days after the assault, we all know who they’re — Rashid Gedel, 25, and Samuel Dodsworth, 43. Each are clearly inmates on the British excessive safety jail. In line with The Solar, the pair ambushed Watkins shortly after inmates had been launched from their cells, slashing his throat and severing his jugular, leading to catastrophic blood loss. Each Gedel and Dodsworth had been charged for Watkins’ homicide.
One eyewitness advised The Solar that the scene instantly following the assault was pandemonium, as guards tried to get a deal with of the state of affairs:
“It was a horrific scene, with blood in all places and alarms and sirens going off. Police and ambulances had been known as and the entire jail was locked down with all cons confined to their cells.”
Within the wake of his dying, Watkins’ ex-girlfriend Joanne Mjadzelics, who’d tried to warn authorities of the singer’s horrific sexual proclivities, advised the Every day Mail that she had a sense Watkins would meet such an finish, although like the remainder of us, she was shocked he lasted so long as he did in custody.
“This can be a massive shock, however I’m shocked it didn’t occur sooner. I used to be at all times ready for this telephone name. He was strolling round with a goal on his again from the primary day he entered the jail.
“I needed him useless for a very long time after every thing he did. I’m relieved. I really feel like a weight has been lifted from my head… That is the second time somebody has slashed his throat. I anticipated it to have occurred earlier. He’s been in there for nearly 13 years.”
Final weekend’s deadly assault wasn’t the one time he’d seen the sting of a blade whereas serving time in jail. Again in 2023, he survived an assault the place he was taken hostage by three inmates for six hours in the identical jail. There, he’d suffered (sadly) non-life theatening accidents earlier than police intervened.
Right here’s hoping that wherever that fuckface ended up as soon as he shuffled off this mortal coil, that the punishment is everlasting, painful, and commensurate to the Hell he prompted within the youngsters he abused. Relaxation in piss, shitbag.
Conversely, does anybody understand how we are able to ship a present basket or two to Gedel and Dodsworth? Perhaps a jail account to replenish with cash to allow them to purchase snacks or one thing? Asking for a good friend…
