    As much as this guy is a piece of shit that deserves to rot away forever, it’s still a failing of that prison to allow this to happen.

    Would hate for him to die before he’s sisters a lifetime of prison. Don’t want him taking the easy way out.

    I kind of wish that the rest of the band would hire a singer for a month or so to re-record the Lostprophet’s catalogue. I’d like to listen to some of their music again without him getting royalties.

      Trouble is he still wrote it. He’d still get royalties.

      Burn Burn remains one of my favourite songs of all time, but I’ve not been able to listen to it since this guy was first…outed. It sucks.

      I’m no legal expert but I’m pretty sure he’d still get royalties from that. He must surely get a cut of any covers or whatever?

        I think it will depend on if he wrote the song or not.

    Good. If you read the report of his prosecution you’ll be physically sick.
