I can't think why people that get angry about this sort of thing don't seem to give a damn this time:
Northampton couple jailed for a decade of child abuse
08/05/2017
A couple who carried out a prolonged series of sexual assaults, child cruelty and drug supply that lasted over a decade have been jailed today (Mon 8 May).
Nicholas and Joan Taylor, of Northampton, preyed on vulnerable children and systematically abused them, repeatedly committing serious sexual offences against nine child victims.
The Taylors used cocaine, threats of violence, force and humiliation to manipulate their victims into being subjected to sexual acts. Five of the children involved were raped on numerous occasions. This offending has had a significant impact on all those involved.
Today at Leicester Crown Court, Nicholas Taylor was sentenced to life imprisonment and Joan Taylor was sentenced to 18 years in prison.
Janine Smith, from the CPS, said:
"To prosecute Nicholas and Joan Taylor the CPS was presented with evidence from multiple victims of a sustained period of abuse. They had committed so many offences that prosecutors were faced with the challenge of selecting charges and presenting the evidence in order to give a clear picture of the abuse to the jury and to enable the court could pass a sentence reflecting the offending.
"The Taylors were found guilty of over 90 separate offences and we argued that both present a real danger to society.
"The victims have given moving personal impact statements to the court to make clear the profound impact that the Taylors' offences have had on their lives. They have shown great strength and courage to come forward to ensure that the Taylors have faced the consequences of their crimes.
"I would like to commend them for supporting the prosecution with their evidence. It cannot be easy but today they have seen their abusers imprisoned and I hope that this will be of comfort to them."

This is horrific. 18 years ? 9 till one is out - says it all about our legal system.
Iwould strongly support castration and/or smothering them in their cells by other inmates.
I guess they are. I would be very surprised if Gadd (alias Glitter) was still in the nick. It's been a few years since his last conviction, but I think they have their passports taken away from them permanently, or until they're taken off the sex offenders register which may never happen of course, depending on the severity of the offence/s.
