Frauen, die Rocksänger anhimmelten, ließen ihn ihre Babys missbrauchen

Think of the rock star you idolize the most. Someone who really makes you scream, tear your hair out, and almost faint. Justin Bieber? (Let's hope not.) Mick Jagger? Now ask yourself if you would let that star sexually assault your child for the "honor" of hanging out with him. The vast majority of people would be sickened by the very idea and certainly never buy that guy's albums again! But others, well, others are very, very twisted.

A despicable case in South Wales has been showing just how far some fans would go for their idol, the lead singer of a group called Lostprophets.
