Convicted pedophile, who raped and tortured children, found dead in prison cell awaiting sentencing
[Blaze] A convicted pedophile who allegedly raped and tortured children was found dead in a U.K. prison cell while he was awaiting sentencing for his sex crimes.

Andrew Hadwin, 39, was found guilty of three counts of rape, seven counts of neglect, and one count of perverting the course of justice in January. Hadwin's partner Cheryl Pickles, 35, was found guilty of five counts of child cruelty and one of perverting the course of justice.

Hadwin and Pickles were scheduled to be sentenced on April 28.

However, Hadwin was found dead inside his cell at the HM Prison Durham on Thursday, according to the U.K. Ministry of Justice.

The cause of the convicted pedophile's death was not immediately known.

A prison spokesperson said, "As with all deaths in custody, the Prisons and Probation Ombudsman will investigate."

Authorities were tipped off about alleged child abuse carried out by Hadwin and Pickles in 2018 after one of the children told another adult about the disturbing torture.

#10 And people think that the UK doesn't have the death penalty. They do, the government has just oursourced it to the private sector.
