Baby Peter stepfather scalded in prison attack

Stephen Barker, jailed over the infant's death, has suffered serious burns after being attacked by another prisoner

Steven Barker, the boyfriend of the abused infant's mother, was reported to have suffering scalding to his face and arm after another prisoner threw boiling water over him.

The Sun newspaper reported that Barker, who is serving a life sentence at high security Wakefield prison, West Yorkshire, was scarred with a mixture of boiling water and sugar, known in prison circles as "napalm". The liquid sticks to the skin and intensifies burns.

But a spokesman for the Ministry of Justice, who confirmed a prisoner was treated for wounds, said sugar was not used in the attack.

A source told the Sun: "To say Barker is disliked is an understatement – he is reviled. The other inmates all hate him with a passion.

"When Barker came here everyone knew what he had done to Baby P. Your card is marked if you have a crime against your name concerning kids.

"After the attack everyone was in good spirits, knowing someone had hurt Barker. The guy who did it will be getting applauded everywhere he goes now."

A Prison Service spokesman said: "A prisoner at HMP Wakefield was assaulted by another. Staff intervened quickly and the prisoner received treatment. Police have been informed."

Barker was jailed at the Old Bailey in May last year for contributing to the 50 injuries Peter suffered in his short life.

The boy had been horrifically abused in the house his mother Tracey Connelly shared with Barker in Tottenham, north London.

Connelly is serving a minimum of five years for causing or allowing Peter's death. Barker's brother Jason Owen, who was a lodger in the council house, was also jailed.

Last month Barker lost his appeal against a further conviction for raping a girl of two.

I have absolutely no sympathy for the man. That said, I hate the way thugs in prison get so self righteous about child molesters. Many of them are out and out sociopaths. They like to feel that they are not the real low down scum. I don't applaud the act, I don't applaud those that did it but I don't give a cotton pickin' **** about the child abuser.

Closed ac

So, there's a God because a man who killed a baby got water thrown on him..?

Hardly seems justice has prevailed..

Surely if there was a God after all he wouldn't have let the baby die, etc. etc.

Takes spoon away from DKZ.

Anyone is above someone who tortures a child for their own pleasure imo.
Great story.

Exactly. They're just Ordinary Decent Criminals. Loved their mums and wouldn't anyone who didn't deserve it. :rolleyes:

No sympathy for Barker here but Lt.Col.Kilgore there is now a probably a prison hero thanks to his actions. That's not right either. Firing squad would be too good for him.

If this whole sorry episode is proof of God for you then that's pretty sad tbh.

I think it's stuff like this that makes the rest of us invent god(s).

I agree. God would never, ever allow this to happen to the prisoner. I believe wholeheartedly that there is a God, just not an interventionist one.

No god, just faith in humanity.

Doesn't mean you have to lower yourself to that of the other prisoners with unspecified crimes.

RAPE RAPIST used WATER ATTACK. CHILD TORTURER has fainted! AbUse another prisoner?

Buford T Justice

In Fairness, its not nearly enough for the filth infested scum bag.

May this be done to him every single week for the rest of his sick life

Sick Scum!

Pretty much:

Unless you meant the references. Vague news report about another news report and "Hooray, eye for an eye" is exactly the reaction the piece wants. The Sun's version at least anyway.

Sea Sharp

The man deserves it. Beating an infant makes him sub-human.

You left out the "boiling" bit...

Senna

Dont really care who the guy was that scalded that scumbag, good on him.

epgc3fyqirnbsx

obviously a scumbag

glad he's locked up

and pretty sure part of the punishment of being locked up is the **** thats gonna happen when you're in there

But still not gonna rejoice for boiling water having been thrown on another human being.
This is what (supposedly) separates us from them

That's convenient.

I could invent anything and say it's true but I can't show you, just believe me.

Nope - Now there would be a God if his balls were cut off and he choked to death after they were shoved down his throat.

I wonder what the "Vigilante" was in for. No sympathy for the guy whatsoever but what's so brilliant about one obvioulsy vile and violent thug scalding another? I doubt the guy was some kind of Dark Kinght out righting thw wrongs of society

Wagon

Love these stories. Means prisoners will kill each other. Hopefully anyway.

So to summarise, scumbag is maimed by slightly less scummier scumbag. Internet forum rejoices and declares the existence of God based on ability of said scumbag's ability to throw boiling water at more scummy scumbag.

Awesome.

Fago!

Ya know the dirt that's on the bottom of your shoe? or the discharge from an old man's todger? or the hair on a fat woman's arse?

That man is the equivelant of that - DISGUSTING

Very Old Testament.

And if a child molester doesn't get scalded in prison, is that proof there isn't a god?

Are they teaching science classes in prison these days ?

Fair play, great to hear he is getting a rough time:)

When I say "there is a god" though, it's just a figure of speech - I don't literally think it.

That "napalm" mixture sounds nasty enough...

Well karma has returned, maybe he will stay with him for a few years.

Fago!
