Escaped Prisoner

Now we've got a convicted murderer on the run, who has already absconded three times before, yet was still allowed out on day release.
Arnold Pickering, imprisoned for stabbing a blind man, wrongly thought to be a paedophile, has previously escaped from Strangeways prison.

Quote:Justice Secretary Chris Grayling this morning promised to 'tear up' the current day release programme and suggested prisoners who had a history of escaping would no longer be allowed out. It came after MPs attacked the 'absolute scandal' of murderers being allowed out of prison 'willy nilly'.
