Gary Glitter Ordered to Pay Over $600,000 to Child Sexual Abuse Victim

Gary Glitter was ordered to pay over $600,000 to a woman he was convicted of sexually abusing when she was 12 years old.

“There is no doubt that the claimant was subject to sexual abuse of the most serious kind by the defendant when she was only 12 years old and that has had a very significant adverse impact on the rest of her life,” the decision read. According to the judge’s decision in the compensation case, Gadd met the claimant and her mother backstage at one of his shows, “plied them with champagne,” eventually got the young girl alone, and assaulted her. He continued: “Gadd’s refusal to engage with the process merely proves his utter lack of remorse, something we will be reminding the Parole Board about if he makes another application for early release.
