Today, a parent protested outside Gary Glitter’s bail hostel with his six-year-old daughter, saying, “Why are they protecting a child molester?”
According to reports at the hostel in the Home Counties, where Glitter, 78, was transported early Friday morning after his release from prison halfway through his 16-year term, the serial sex offender has been treated ‘like royalty’ by having his meals delivered by employees.
Two vigilantes assaulted the hostel’s driveway and one scaled the electric gate yesterday, prompting police to be called.
Today, however, 46-year-old father David Jones, who lives nearby, attempted to contact hostel workers by intercom after he and his daughter, who was wearing a pink kitten headband, arrived outside the hostel. He requested that his daughter’s name be withheld.
Mr. Jones, a construction worker, stated, “We’re spending all kinds of money to protect a paedophile like that; he should have died in prison.”
Yesterday, pop paedophile Gary Glitter was released from prison. Now, protesters are asking, “Why are they protecting a paedophile?”

I asked the employees why they were defending paedophiles rather than local children like my daughter. They stated they would contact the police and that the property was private.
I simply wanted them to explain to my kid why such a man is even present.
Mr. Jones, who claimed to have spent many years in the United States, stated that inhabitants in the United States could determine where paedophiles resided, however the same checks were not possible in the United Kingdom.
Why don’t they do it here if it’s utterly wrong?
Earlier, a vigilante who had been live-streaming yesterday’s protest from outside the hostel on Facebook claimed he planned to fly a drone around the hostel’s exterior to determine if Glitter – real name Paul Gadd – was inside.
In a suburban location with electric gates, the hostel is within walking distance of ten or more schools.
The offenders have access to an outdoor gym, football goalposts, a smoking shelter, and expansive grounds with a garden plot.
Residents in the area expressed their displeasure at the idea of a sexual offender like Glitter living nearby.
According to insiders at the facility at an undisclosed location in the south of England, the serial sex offender has been treated ‘like royalty’ by having his meals served by employees.
The self-proclaimed vigilantes, who arrived in a BMW, warned passing vehicles that Glitter was inside the hostel.

One middle-aged woman told Mail Online, “I understand that these people have to be put somewhere, but there are so many children, playgrounds, and schools in this area that it doesn’t seem like the best choice for a man like him.”
A children’s playground on a private estate adjacent to Glitter’s hostel is visible through the fences, and a child’s swing is located directly next to the fencing.
According to rumors, the 1970s hitmaker Glitter has declined to participate in jail sex offender treatment programs.
According to a source, he attended the sessions but made his disinterest plain.
It was like a mischievous child staring out the window during class.
“Surely, if a dangerous sexual offender refuses to engage, they are not fit for release?”
Others questioned why Glitter was accompanied by three or four police officers on his 1.30 a.m. release from HMP The Verne in Portland, Dorset, at the expense of taxpayers, when he is fully capable of paying for his own taxi or security detail.
According to a source, the majority of prisoners are only given bus or taxi fare if they’re lucky. He received five-star treatment, which appears to continue in the hostel.
Glitter is classified as a “level 3” offender.
It indicates that he is still considered “dangerous” and “capable of causing serious harm” and will be monitored by senior probation officers.
Any violation of his parole restrictions would result in Glitter’s immediate return to prison.
He still has a £2 million luxury apartment on the top floor of a Victorian red-brick mansion near Baker Street in London.
Since his 2006 incarceration in Vietnam, he has not been the owner of the empty apartment.
The residence, which neighbors claim was vacant while his incarceration, is owned by a former associate through a corporation.
In 2015, the disgraced pop star was imprisoned for 16 years for committing sex offenses against three youngsters aged eight to thirteen.
The self-proclaimed vigilantes, who arrived in a BMW, warned passing vehicles that Glitter was inside the hostel.
Glitter was released in 2008 and returned to Britain, where he was re-incarcerated in 2015 for 1970s-era child sex assault.
Due to his fixed sentence, he was not required to appear before the Parole Board.
If parole officers believe a prisoner still poses a threat to the public, they have the authority to deny their release.
Glitter — was one of the UK’s most popular glam rock bands of the 1970s and a regular on BBC’s Top of the Pops. Three of his UK No. 1 singles were titled I’m the Leader of the Gang (I Am! ), I Love You Love Me Love, and Always Yours.
By 1975, he had sold 18 million recordings, but was declared bankrupt by the end of the decade.
1984 marked his return with the release of the hit single Dance Me Up.

After serving two and a half years in prison, Glitter is ordered back to the United Kingdom in August 2008.
Glitter is the first person detained under the Metropolitan Police’s Operation Yewtree in October 2012.
The singer is charged with eight charges of sexual offenses in June 2014, which are later increased to ten counts.
February 2015 – He is convicted of one count of attempted rape, four counts of indecent assault, and one count of sexual contact with a minor. Glitter receives 16 years in prison.
The 78-year-old is released from HMP The Verne on February 3, 2023.
1997 was the beginning of Glitter’s dramatic fall from grace, when he brought his laptop to a PC World location in Bristol for repair.
A technician discovered photographs of child abuse on the hard disk.
Two years later, the singer was sentenced to four months in prison when authorities discovered 4,000 photos during a subsequent investigation.
Glitter left upon release and was expelled from Cambodia in 2002 for alleged sex offences.
Four years later, he was imprisoned in neighboring Vietnam for abusing two girls, one of them was only eleven years old.
He dodged death-penalty-carrying charges of child rape and returned to the United Kingdom in 2008.
He was compelled to sign the sex offenders registry, but in 2012 he was arrested at his multimillion-pound residence in Westminster.
Police would subsequently describe him as a “repeat sexual offender who took advantage of his celebrity status.”
In the 1970s and 1980s, he was convicted in 2015 of attempted rape, four counts of indecent assault, and one count of having sex with a minor.
Judge Alistair McCreath stated during sentencing that he could discover “no real evidence” that Glitter had atoned for his misdeeds.
The judge stated, “It is difficult to overstate the heinousness of this conduct.”
He said, “You caused lasting harm to all of them for the sole purpose of obtaining sexual gratification of an entirely inappropriate nature.”
In June of 2021, it was discovered that Glitter had been granted release.
At the time, one of his juvenile victims in Vietnam, whom he abused when she was just 10 years old, stated, “He will always be a terrible threat to young girls.”
It is terrible to consider that he may soon be free.
I continue to have nightmares because of what he did to me.
Glitter no longer possesses the master rights to his songs, hence he no longer earns royalties.
His song Rock and Roll Part 2 appeared in the 2019 popular film The Joker, but the rights owner maintained he would not earn any profits.
