Paedophile biker dies in prison

A paedophile biker jailed after he threatened to kill three teenage girls unless they performed a ”disgusting” porn video has died of a heart attack in prison.

Vile Simon Webb, 43, filmed the girls – aged 14, 15 and 16 – kissing and touching each other on his mobile phone after he drove them to a field.

Webb – a notorious member of biker gang the ‘Outlaws’ – was jailed for five years in June after he admitted inciting a child to engage in sexual activity.

But days before Webb was due to appear in court again on fraud offences he collapsed in his prison cell in HMP Wymott in Lancashire on September 4.

Webb, who was 6ft 5in tall and weighed over 22 stone, was taken to Chorley and South Ribble Hospital but died soon after arriving.

Today his estranged wife Anne-Marie, 30, said wanted to view his body so she could ”give him a good slap”.

She said: ”When he told me I just burst out laughing but the next minute I burst into tears.

”I was thinking about how I was going to tell the children their dad is dead. My main concern is the kids.

”It was just after X Factor had finished when I was told. It’s a good job he didn’t come before the end.

”I’m going to view the body so I can give him a good slap. I want to make sure he’s dead then I can pawn his wedding ring.

”I have already pawned mine. I am now classed as a widow but I would rather be classed as divorced. I’m sad I didn’t get to divorce him before he died.

”I asked the police officer if I would get a widow’s pension. At least I won’t have to spend the rest of my life looking over my shoulder.”

Webb admitted promising his teenage victims £4,000 each if they took part in a fashion shoot.

But when the father-of-five picked the girls up he drove them to a secluded field and forced them to perform sex acts on each other on June 27 last year.

Coventry Crown Court heard Webb threatened to kill the girls and dump their bodies in a river if they refused to take part.

Webb, from Pinvin, near Pershore, Worcs., admitted three offences of inciting a child to engage in sexual activity and one of causing a child to watch sexual activity.
