I have heard of wrong prisoners being released, they always get them back again.

This is a first, have never heard of a convicted criminal being accidentally released.
And if he had his possessions in a clear plastic bag that means he was checked out of the prison and given his stuff back as he left. Release procedure was followed, so how did this happen??
Heads need to roll for this.

So they released one and kept another in jail? Maybe?

How do you accidentally release someone. How does that happen.

When the government’s contract out to a company like Serco, it’s quite easy 🤬
They can’t keep track of offenders on Tag. What hope with a violent dangerous criminal 😱

You couldn’t make this up!

Before it was even publicly announced a GB News viewer was suspicious of a man in a grey tracksuit carrying a large, clear plastic bag with his belongings. He was asking others for directions and she videoed him on her phone. He is still on the run but they know from her info that he caught a lunchtime train to London. Good for her!
