You Couldn't Make This Shit Up...
 

A guy nicknamed 'Skull Cracker' escaped prison on Saturday - He was serving 13 life sentences for violent bank robberies...

He has escaped before (twice) and on both occasions staged more violent robberies and was caught and sent back to prison.....

Today they caught him again while staging another robbery with a machine gun!..

So how did he escape, must be some sort of evil genius right? - Not so much, he just didn't bother going back after having a few hours UNESCORTED LEAVE!....

13 life sentences and they just let him leave for the day and assume he will be a good boy and come back? Brilliant!

I give up with this place...

Hmm... I wonder how easy it was for him to get a gun....

He made it in the prison workshop.

In a country where all guns are illegal? lol

can i have your sig?? :helpme:helpme

Easy, There anti gun policy is funny when you look at the numbers

I was talking about the UK not GFY... :1orglaugh

well can i?? :helpme hehehe

have you not heard of a 13th chance?? ;)

Maybe I read the article wrong but it doesn't say he had a machine gun

It says (and I quote).

So, the police had machine guns, not the fugitive.

This simply can not be true. It is impossible. Not even in Scandinavia where they treat inmates as hotel guests. Something is missing here. Not the full story.

Sounds a bit harsh but seems it's true. Here is the news from 2002 http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/2289804.stm

Yes it can you can be given 13 life sentences with a recommendation you serve a min of X years, if he has served 2 thirds out of the X years he can be put into a D class (open) prison where the mentality is to get the prisoners ready and adjusted to civil life before their release,

Not saying this is the case in the story above "but" it can be possible

Edit: just seen above post, as I suspected

Despite the number of life sentences imposed, Wheatley could be considered for parole in eight years.

Mark you have just umped the liberal shark ...:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

You should never try to rob a bank with an illegal gun, that shit will just get you in trouble. Only use legal guns for bank robberies.

Kind of related, but my favorite jail thing from another country is Mexico. It seems in Mexico, if you escape from prison or even get caught trying you will get no added time to your sentence.

The reason is they understand all people want to be free and don't think it's right to punish people for trying to be free. Meaning if you ever find yourself in a Mexican prison, it's completely legal to try an escape.

sounds like an episode of that show "Breakout Kings" which seems to have been canceled, even tho it was awesome.

Went to check on Scandinavian countries and found this:
