Glitter Saga Continues


This is a follow up to a previous post about the sad saga of Gary Glitter, the 64 year old Glam Rocker had been living in Viet Nam, most recently in a Viet Nam jail. Glitter was found guilty in 2006 of committing "obscene acts with children" — offenses involving girls aged 10 and 11. This week, he was released from jail in Viet Nam and was refused entry to both Thailand and Hong Kong. The picture that you see, here, is recent - taken earlier in the week. Reports indicate that he has returned to his native England.
This is sad. We hope he finds the help he needs.

Glitter is most famous for his top ten hit "Rock and Roll (Part 2)." The song is still popular at various sports venues.
