Ian Watkins was stabbed in prison, in the neck. Unfortunetelly, he survived and the wounds were not life threatening. Where's the fairness in that.

Crimes That Shook Britain (Wales)
Murder of Rebecca Aylward
On 25 October 2010, Rebecca Aylward, 15, awoke on 6am, did her make-up, put on new clothes.
She was excited about meeting ex-boyfriend Joshua Davies, 16, hoping they'd rekindle their relationship.
But Davies hated Rebecca. With mates he met on Sundays for breakfast, he'd discussed ways to kill her - poisoning, drowning, pushing her off a cliff.
In the end, that rainy morning, Davies lured her to secluded woods near Aberkenfig, Bridgend, and hit her over the head with a rock.
Rebecca's distraught family reported her missing and her body was found the next day.
And Joshua Davies was arrested. His murder trial heard he'd killed Rebecca over a bet for a free breakfast.
A mate had said he'd buy him a 'Full English' if he carried out his threats. Davies was convicted, jailed for life to serve a minimum term of 14 years in prison.
In 2018, Davies finally admitted to the murder to prison officers.
Murder of Karen Price
In 1989, workmen found a rolled-up carpet while digging up a garden in Cardiff's Riverside area. Inside were the remains of a girl.
Forensic experts made a clay reconstruction of the girl's head, identifying her as Karen Price, 15, who'd disappeared from a children's home in July 1981.
Back then, the basement flat where her body had been found was occupied by Alan Charlton.
In 1991, Charlton and another man, Idris Ali - accused of being Karen's pimp - were convicted of her murder.
The trial heard that Charlton had killed Karen when she refused to perform sex acts, while Ali helped bury her body.
In 1994, Ali successfully appealed, pleaded guilty to manslaughter at his retrial, and was freed. Charlton has made several appeals against his conviction. All have been dismissed and he remains in jail.
Ian Watkins
In December 2012, Ian Watkins - lead singer of award-winning band Lostprophets, with 3.5m album sales worldwide - was arrested on charges of child abuse.
As the case unfolded, horrifying details emerged Watkins seduced female fans he met online and manipulated them until they allowed him to use their children to fulfil his depraved sex fantasies.
In November 2013, Watkins was jailed for 35 years after admitting a string of child sex offenses, including attempted rape of a baby and sexually abusing children
His two co-defendants - the two mothers of children he abused - were jailed for 14 and 17 years. The judge Mr Justice Royce, said the case 'plunged into new depths of depravity.'
Murder of April Jones
April Jones, just 5 years old, disappeared on 1 October 2012, while playing on her bike near her home in Machynlleth, Wales.
April's friend said she'd willingly got into a car with a man. Her hysterical parents Coral and Paul called the police, sparking the largest search in UK policing history.
Within hours, media appeals were made and April's photo hit global news.
Police set up roadblocks, hundreds of volunteers searched and, the next evening, local Mark Bridger, 46, was arrested.
The desperate search for April continued. After five days, Bridger was charged with April's abduction and murder. Her body was never found.
At Bridger's April 2013 trial, it emerged that tiny burnt bone pieces were found in his fireplace, and that blood in his cottage living room matched April's DNA.
Bridger was convicted of abducting and murdering April and jailed for life.
Murder of Ffion Wyn Roberts
Ffion Wyn Roberts' body was found in a drainage ditch behind her Porthmadog home in April 2010. She'd last been seen alive enjoying a night out with family and friends.
Detectives launched a massive murder hunt and, eight weeks later, arrested local lestyn Davies at his workplace, a wool factory close to Ffion's home. Davies was known to Ffion's family.
Davies' murder trial heard he'd attacked Ffion, 22, as she made her way home. He'd beaten her, strangled her with her own scarf and left the care worker to drown in the ditch.
DNA traces were found on the scarf and Davies was captured on CCTV in the area at the time she was killed. He was found guilty, jailed for life, with a minimum 25-year term.
John Cooper
In December 1985, farmer Richard Thomas, 58, and his sister Helen, 56, were shot dead, and their home near Milford Haven set alight.
In June 1989, couple Peter and Gwenda Dixon, 51 and 52, were shot dead on a coastal path.
They'd been tied up and robber, Gwenda sexually assaulted.
Then, in March 1996, five Milford Haven teens were held at gunpoint. One girl, 16, was raped at knifepoint, another, 15, indecently assaulted.
Police long suspected a local convicted burglar, John Cooper, who was finally charged in 2011 on a review of DNA evidence.
Convicted of four murders, five attempted robberies, rape and indecent assault, he was given a whole-life sentence.
An appeal against the conviction was rejected in 2012.
