Lostprophets’ Ian Watkins Found Guilty of 13 Child Sex Charges

Former Lost Prophets frontman Ian Watkins has been found guilty of 13 child sex charges, including sexually assaulting a 13-year-old girl and the attempted rape of a baby.

The Welsh rock singer appeared in court on Tuesday (November 26th) where he admitted to the sickeningly long list of crimes. The offenses Watkins has been charged with are as follows:

  • He denied two counts of raping an 11-month-old baby but admitted two counts of attempting to rape the child.
  • He admitted sexually assaulting a child aged under 13.
  • He admitted aiding and abetting a female co-defendant to sexually assault a child under 13.
  • He pleaded guilty to conspiring to sexually assault a child under 13.
  • He also pleaded guilty to possessing ten indecent images of children.
  • He also pleaded guilty to two counts of taking indecent photographs of children dating back to 2007 and 2008.
  • He admitted possession of indecent photographs of a child and possessing extreme pornography depicting a person engaged in a sex act with an animal.

Watkins’ co-accused, two females aged 21-years old and 24-years-old, respectively pleaded guilty to aiding and abetting the rape of a child aged under 13 years, taking and distributing disturbing indecent photographs of children, and sexually assaulting a child under the age of 13 by penetration.

Watkins will be sentenced at a later date.
