He further pleaded guilty to three counts of sexual assault involving children and six involving taking, making or possessing indecent images of children and one of possessing an extreme pornographic image involving a [[Bestiality|sex act on an animal]]. He was sentenced on December 18<sup>th</sup>. A senior investigating officer on the case described Watkins as a "committed, organised paedophile" and "potentially the most dangerous sex offender" he had ever seen.


Watkins' victims included a baby and he sent an SMS text message to the mother of one, saying "If you belong to me, so does your baby". South Wales Police's investigation into Watkins, codenamed "Operation Globe", required the cooperation of GCHQ to de-encrypt a hidden drive on his laptop, which was then found to contain videos of his abuses. One of the passwords for his laptop was "I FUK KIDZ". He also referred to his horrific acts during a phone call with a fan from prison as "Mega Lolz", showing no remorse for his sex crimes.
