What took so long?

Ian Watkins got stabbed. No, I don’t know why it took so long for something like this to happen either…

Former Lostprophets vocalist Ian Watkins was sentenced to 35 years in prison in 2013 for what can only be described as the most horrific child sex offenses you can imagine. […] The Mirror is now reporting that Watkins has been beaten and stabbed in prison and is currently in life-threatening condition. According to a source from the report, “He was found by officers after being held hostage and battered on Saturday morning. He’s in a life-threatening condition and there are fears he could die. If he survives, he’ll have been very lucky.”
Watkins was taken hostage by three inmates shortly after 9am on Saturday, August 5. Watkins was stabbed and beaten, and was eventually freed by prison officers six hours after the incident.

That said, BBC reports the injuries actually weren’t life-threatening, so I have no idea what’s what. But who’s actually afraid that this cunt might die? I can’t imagine anyone outside of his immediate family who might actually be sad at the thought of him dying, and frankly even they shouldn’t. Maybe they don’t, in fact. As I said, the only surprise is that it’s taken nearly 10 years for someone to try and wipe Watkins out; he’s a fucking monstrosity surrounded by other monstrosities in that prison… personally I worry more about the guys who obviously had an opportunity somehow to end him but didn’t, I could imagine someone going after them now…
