If the British government simply removed his assets,100,000 pounds a year in royalties,he would cease to be a player in the kiddie porn market.

Guest manc Posted March 18, 2006 I'm thinking there's probably already a Gary Glitter thread, but I really can't be bothered to look for it. Anyway, according to this article he's on the lam in Vietnam. http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20051117/ap_en_...DRrBHNlYwM3NjI- Check out the last sentence. Plus maybe he'll cave in to pressure and top himself. One can only hope. It will be good if he is out for Christmas. He might do another Gang show, and they are great. I went to see one in Mancheser, when he toured with the village people. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

maryportfuncity 10,437 Posted June 16, 2006 Could still be out by Christmas although The Sun - amongst others - suggested he might be instantly deported back to the UK. I'm sure there'd be a welcoming committee of tabloids and the terminally curious ready for him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Alvin Stardust Posted July 27, 2006 People like Gary Glitter don't change - I remember in the '70's when he was at the peak of his fame, reading about his behaviour like being chauffered around in his Rolls Royce Phantom looking for young impressionable fans to lure into the car where he'd play them with alcohol from the mini-bar before whisking them back to his mansion to defile them then dump them on the street when he'd had his way. He should have got the firing squad then for clogging up the charts with his awful music which is a huge crime in it's own right. Anyone who witnessed Gary Glitter on Top Of the Pops in the 1970's will know what I mean - he'd be dressed in foot high spangled platform boots with tight leather trousers and a silver lame jacket with huge shoulder pads, hair that looked like an electrified cockerel on his head and make up like a Japanese Kabuki performer - a pretty hideous package that wasn't made any less scary when he'd leer suggestively and make faces...I'll never forget the camera pointing up at him while he stared down into it with a demonic look in his eye like he was Ming the Merciless. All this should have told us then that he was a danger, and with song titles like: School Day, Doing Alright With the Boys, and What Your Momma Don't See Your Momma Don't Know, how did we fail to see it?

Canadian Paul 93 Posted February 3, 2007 Early release and deportation for 2007? A distinct possibility according to BBC News. Not a well man, apparantly. Between reading stories like Gary Glitter, Ronnie Biggs, Jack Kevorkian, Nick DuToit, Yvon Neptune and Abdul Qadeer Khan and constrasting them with people like Pete Doherty, it appears that everyone over 50 is about to die in jail and no one under 50 is allowed to be put in there. Best evidence for celebrity bias in the prison system I've seen yet. Look how long Pinochet and Papon went on after their release - granted they weren't in the best of health, but a large segment of the population who's never been to jail doesn't get that much time. Granted, Lay and Milosevic were actually doing poorly, but perhaps they're the exceptions that prove the rules? Not to mention Gibson's avoidance of prison. Take John Straffen - been in prison for over 5 decades, turns 76 this year and keeps quiet. Bring back the witch trials! I say when someone claims amnesty on health grounds, we plunk them in the middle of Jurassic Park and turn off the electric fences. If they get chomped, request to terminate the sentence early granted on the basis of health grounds. If they managed to avoid Rex, they're clearly healthy enough to rot in jail a little longer.

maryportfuncity 10,437 Posted February 4, 2007 A good point CP and one so blindingly obvious the assembled brains trust appears to have overlooked it. Young 'uns regularly die in jail by way of brutality, suicide and the rest. In fact suicide is now right up there with the leading causes of death for UK males under 25, with remand prisoners and those locked up for a lengthy period both showing a propensity for their own version of a short, sharp, shock. Young celebs on the other hand.......I put it down to the money for good lawyers, leading to short sentences. And their over-developed egos probably giving them a sense of self-worth if and when they're banged up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
