. (Radio.com) British glam-rock pioneer Gary Glitter, famous for his string of hits in the early 1970s including "Do You Wanna Touch Me" and perennial jock jam favorite "Rock and Roll (Parts 1 and 2)," has been convicted for sex crimes against minors during his chart-topping heyday. According to USA Today, Glitter (real name Paul Gadd) was found guilty in a London court of one count of attempted rape, four counts of indecent assault and one count of sexual intercourse with a girl under the age of 13. The charge of sex with a minor could result in a life sentence for the singer. "Paul Gadd abused his access to young fans in order to give himself the opportunities to assault and abuse his victims," Chief Crown Prosecutor Baljit Ubhey explained. "Crimes such as these have repercussions for victims that can last for a lifetime." Read more here. Radio.com is an official news provider for antiMusic.com.
