Jurors to be selected this week in Watkins case

The imminent trial of Lostprophets frontman Ian Watkins is approaching with reports noting jurors for the case will be selected this week.

The imminent trial of Lostprophets frontman Ian Watkins is approaching with reports noting jurors for the case will be selected this week.


Watkins currently faces multiple, alleged child sex offences.


Last month, a judge warned potential jurors of evidence they may be subjected to during the trial.


“We need to consider what material the jury will be shown. There is the possibility that some jury members, having completed the trial may need counseling.”


The trial is slated to conclude in late December.


Watkins maintains his innocence.
