Inmates Dug Through Winchester Prison Walls With PLASTIC Cutlery

---One in 10 prisons in England and Wales barely fit for purpose, says audit of prisoner treatment

PLUS Dangerous Criminals Run Away From Probation Hostel

---An undercover investigation inside the Probation Service by the BBC has found serious failings in the supervision of violent and sex offenders.

BBC 23 MAY 2024

Winchester prison inmates were able to damage cell walls with simple implements, said the report.

If you are one those people who turns up their nose at the plot of the Shawshank Redemption for being a little too far-fetched, this may come as a surprise.

Some jails have become so decrepit that, in one case, Winchester prison inmates were able to tunnel through the walls using only plastic cutlery, a damning report on facilities in England and Wales has found.

The latest annual assessment from the independent monitoring boards (IMBs), which audit prisoner treatment, comes after the chief inspector of prisons separately said one in 10 facilities were barely fit for purpose. The latest report found that conditions in Victorian prisons were particularly bad.

“At Winchester, there were several occasions throughout the year where prisoners were able to damage and attempt to dig through cell walls, on one occasion through the wall to the landing, using simple implements such as plastic cutlery,” it noted.

The report found that conditions in such prisons were “exacerbated by the fact that many of these prisons have a reception function. The increased churn experienced by reception prisons made it more difficult to maintain cells to an acceptable standard.”

The report said their age made it “difficult to keep buildings functional and decent – for example, Winchester IMB reported crumbling walls and roofs all over the prison, leading to leaks, flooding, and slip hazards”.

Last year, the chief inspector of prisons, Charlie Taylor, told the Guardian that about 14 Victorian jails were so poorly designed, overcrowded and ill-equipped that they could not provide proper accommodation for inmates.

As a result, thousands of prisoners were being held in vermin-infested buildings with too few staff and inadequate facilities for retraining and education, Taylor said.

Dangerous Criminals Run Away From Probation Hostel

Fleming House is one of about 100 hostels in England and Wales which house high-risk criminals

Two dangerous convicted criminals ran away from a probation hostel in Kent during the six weeks a Panorama reporter was secretly filming there.

New figures obtained by the BBC show that offenders on probation in England and Wales have been charged with two killings and three sexual assaults every week on average.

The Ministry of Justice said: "Protecting the public is our top priority."

Reoffending rates have fallen from 31% to 24% since 2010, a ministry spokesperson added.

The reporter worked at Fleming House in Maidstone, a hostel run by the Probation Service which is home to about 30 high-risk offenders including murderers, paedophiles and rapists.

It is one of about 100 approved premises across England and Wales, which supervise about 2,000 criminals who are considered too dangerous to release straight into the community. These offenders live in the hostels for about three months after coming out of prison.

Our Investigation Found:

A sex offender and a man who stabbed a vulnerable person ran away from the hostel in separate incidents

The sex offender travelled across the country and was found only 11 miles from the home of a young woman who says he groomed her when she was a teenager

Widely used monitoring software that should enable the police to check what sex offenders do on their phones does not work on iPhones and some gaming devices

Offenders repeatedly missed alcohol and drugs tests because staff had forgotten to order plastic breathalyser tubes or because the hostel had run out of money for drugs testing

One member of staff at Fleming House falsified a resident's sign-in record, which one expert said could provide a false alibi if he were investigated for a crime

Fleming House has a history of problems: three years ago, a resident was jailed for killing a man who lived nearby and a serial sex offender also living there groomed a 13-year-old girl.

The sex offender who was able to run away from the hostel during Panoramas’ secret filming was Anthony Bullman. He had been convicted of sexually assaulting a young woman in 2020 and has been assessed by the Probation Service as a danger to teenage girls.

Anthony Bullman, who has a sexual assault conviction, also absconded from the hostel
