According to the Sun. He's in an induced coma now. GOOD.

From The Sun.

SOHAM monster Ian Huntley was given just a five per cent chance of survival after he was battered senseless with a metal pole in a prison workshop.

The child killer was in an induced coma today as he was treated in hospital following the attack at HMP Frankland just after 9am on Thursday.

And sources said medics “worked miracles” to keep the fiend alive after staff who saw Huntley after the beating assumed he was dead.

One told The Sun: “It is miraculous he is still alive.

“Medics have worked miracles on him and he has clung on.

The person who attacked him is a 3x murderer and a rapist who attacked pregnant women

Evil doing evil to evil

Whatever you think of Huntley, that shouldn't be a reason to celebrate what is currently attempted murder.

I’d have cheered the matter if the person who attacked him was a shoplifter or someone who was wrongfully imprisoned

So you'd want to see someone wrongfully imprisoned get a much longer sentence for attempted murder, or a life sentence for murder if Huntley dies?

As I said in relation to Ian Watkins this sort of thing hardly inspires confidence in the system. If it can happen to Huntley presumably it could just as easily happen to a member of staff. More minor assault no doubt does happen to staff all the time and doesn’t make the news.

Still hanging on but his face was sliced almost in two. A wonder he survived.....his mother said she didn't even recognise him and hopes he dies.

Under heavy armed police guard now as so many on SM asking someone to sneak in and pull the plug. He can hardly escape can he..

Do we really need to be so graphic?

It’s one of those situations where his death in the grand scheme of things just won’t really bring comfort for all of what he did and times like this where he’s in the media it’ll likely be hell for the families as they’ll in a way be reliving it again.

Exactly im in agreement with Jordan, yes the man deserves to rot for what hes done but every failed attack on him has got to be traumatic for the family everytime they see his face plastered all over the papers
