CHILD killer Ian Huntley \u201cstruts about\u201d and enjoys a string of hobbies in his high-security jail, loathed by fellow inmates.<\/p>\n

Lags say the killer \u201crevels\u201d in the heinous murders of schoolgirls Holly Wells<\/a> and Jessica Chapman<\/a>, who he snatched and killed in 2002.<\/p>\n

The \u201csick b*****d\u201d has been spotted shamelessly wearing a Manchester United<\/a>-style No10 shirt – in an apparent sick reference to his ten-year-old victims, who were both wearing the footie <\/a>tops when he murdered them<\/a>.<\/p>\n

And his fellow inmates – who include warlords and paedos – are incensed <\/a>that he\u2019s allowed to keep framed pictures of himself with ex Maxine Carr<\/a> in his cell.<\/p>\n

Carr, 47, served 21 months for perverting the course of justice \u2013 after giving Huntley<\/a> a false alibi – and now lives under a new identity.<\/p>\n

Our source added: \u201cIt is so wrong what he gets away with. Loads of people have been in his cell and seen the pictures. It is vile and like he is revelling in what happened back then.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe should not be allowed to keep them either, especially as there is a no-contact order between him and Carr.<\/p>\n

\u201cBut staff have to do their best to keep the peace and keep people like Huntley happy. However that means it comes across like he is treated with kid gloves.\u201d<\/p>\n

The monster spends his time at Frankland playing chess<\/a>, going to the gym and mixing with pals.<\/p>\n

Huntley lives a “gilded” life in jail – with other lags claiming he gets special treatment due to his notoriety.<\/p>\n

The fiend is held on Frankland’s A-wing – housing vulnerable lags – in a cell close to a staff office.<\/p>\n

It is also near a lounge with a flat-screen TV<\/a>, where Huntely spends time and mixes with other fiends including ex-cop Wayne Couzens<\/a>, morgue moster David Fuller<\/a> and serial killer Stephen Port<\/a>.<\/p>\n

This Morning air chilling Ian Huntley clip 20 years on from Holly and Jessica’s death<\/p>\n

Among his closest pals is warlord ex-Liberian president Charles Taylor – jailed for crimes against humanity over atrocities in the Sierra Leone<\/a> civil war – and Huntley <\/a>often turns to the warlord for advice.<\/p>\n

Huntley works in a recycling<\/a> centre and as a wing barber. Other inmates have complained that Huntley gets to use the gym, health<\/a> unit and phones alone as guards clear out cons who might assault him.<\/p>\n

Huntley has been attacked at least three times in jail. He was punched in the face in Belmarsh, London<\/a> in 2004, had boiling water hurled at him in Wakefield, West Yorks<\/a> in 2005 and had his throat slashed in Frankland in 2010.<\/p>\n

\n

It is so wrong what he gets away with. Loads of people have been in his cell and seen the pictures. It is vile and like he is revelling in what happened back then<\/p>\n

We told in 2019 how he was investigated by jail bosses over his friendship with a transgender<\/a> lag called Luna.<\/p>\n

Other inmates referred to the transitioning con as Huntley’s ‘girlfriend’ after they became pals.<\/p>\n

‘Gilded existence’<\/p>\n

A source said: “Huntley lives the life of Riley inside, and has quite a gilded existence. He knows he is unlikely to ever get out so makes the most of his time in there.<\/p>\n

“It is hard to see that he is being punished. He has a cell with TV, DvD player and an Xbox<\/a> and is right next to a lounge and an office.<\/p>\n

“That means that no-one can go into his cell without the guards knowing and that if Huntley needs them he just has to shout.<\/p>\n

“They go to some effort to keep him safe, as he is at such a high risk of attack.”<\/p>\n

The Sun revealed leaked prison tapes in 2018<\/a> which featured Huntley begging for forgiveness<\/a> for the murders.<\/p>\n

In the recordings, he said: \u201cI think about them every day. I am so terribly, terribly sorry for what I have done.<\/p>\n

\u201cI know the people of Soham took me into their community, they trusted me, gave me a job and a home, and I betrayed them in the worst possible way.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnd I am sorry for what I have done, sorry for the pain I have caused to the families and friends of Holly and Jessica, for the pain I have caused my family and friends, and for the pain I have caused the community of Soham.\u201d<\/p>\n

But – far from showing remorse – Huntley has been spotted \u201cstrutting about\u201d in a plain red sports top with No10 on the back, which he is thought to have ordered from Sports Direct<\/a>.<\/p>\n

A picture of Holly and Jessica wearing matching Man Utd tops with David Beckham<\/a>\u2019s name and No7 was the last haunting image of the school <\/a>friends.<\/p>\n

We are not publishing that picture after previous requests to the media from Holly and Jessica\u2019s families not to do so.<\/p>\n

Prisoners are barred from wearing replica shirts of teams they follow in jails, as they can cause conflict.<\/p>\n

‘Sick reference’<\/p>\n

But a source said: \u201cHe has made it as close to a Man U top as he can \u2014 and it is sick. It is vile that it has a huge white number 10 on the back.<\/p>\n

\u201cEveryone thinks he is doing it to satisfy his own sick mind, rather than for football<\/a> reasons. He started wearing it when it became hot enough this year and is often seen in it when he walks to the gym or to healthcare.\u201d<\/p>\n

Huntley is always escorted by guards because he is so high-risk.<\/p>\n

The source added: \u201cBut that makes him even more cocky and brazen. He has been seen strutting about in the shirt as if he thinks it\u2019s funny.<\/p>\n

\u201cPrisoners on another wing saw him recently while he was being taken to the gym \u2014 and shouted that he was a sick b*****d.<\/p>\n

MONSTER JAILMATES<\/p>\n

By Michael Hamilton<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

KILLER Ian Huntley is housed with other murderers and terrorists in a jail dubbed \u201cMonster Mansion\u201d.<\/p>\n

HMP Frankland holds Milly Dowler\u2019s killer Levi Bellfield and ex-police officer Wayne Couzens, who murdered Sarah Everard.<\/p>\n

Grindr killer Stephen Port, morgue monster David Fuller and Mark Dixie, who murdered Sally-Ann Bowman, are all serving time at the Category A jail. <\/p>\n

Frankland, in Co Durham, also houses terrorists including Lee Rigby\u2019s killer Michael Adebolajo and Nazi nail-bomber David Copeland.<\/p>\n

Manchester Arena plotter Hashem Abedi stabbed and scalded three prison officers in a kitchen there in April. He has since moved.<\/p>\n

\u201cBut he just gave a thumbs-up to them. He has also stopped outside and turned his back to people so they can see the number. Other prisoners are really angry about it and a lot of them would like to get their hands on him and mete out a bit of justice.<\/p>\n

\u201cOne prisoner said they thought it was disgusting he was wearing it and he replied: \u2018Yeah, and what of it?\u2019<\/p>\n

\u201cOfficers also do not like it and quite a few \u00a0have said it\u2019s wrong and he should have it taken off him. But staff are powerless to stop him as it\u2019s not an actual football shirt and he hasn\u2019t broken any rules. However it is just wrong.<\/p>\n

\u201cHuntley is not even a football fan really. The Number 10 is especially offensive and seems a sick reference to the girls.\u201d<\/p>\n

Holly and Jessica had left a family barbecue to buy sweets when grabbed by Huntley. They stopped to speak to Huntley, who was living with their teaching assistant Maxine Carr, outside the house they shared.<\/p>\n

He lured them in and murdered them. Their bodies were found 13 days later six miles from the Cambridgeshire <\/a>village of Soham<\/a>.<\/p>\n

They had been dumped in a ditch near RAF<\/a> Lakenheath, Suffolk<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The shirts were found burned and dumped in a bin. Huntley, who has never shown remorse, denied the murders and put the girls\u2019 families through a harrowing six-week trial at the Old Bailey.<\/p>\n

The fiend claimed in court<\/a> that Holly suffered a nose bleed and fell into a bath, banging her head and drowning.<\/p>\n

He said Jessica screamed so he put his hand over her mouth until she stopped.<\/p>\n

The Prison Service said: \u201cWe do not comment on individuals.\u201d<\/p>\n
