Jailhouselawyer's Blog: Search for former royal aide after she absconds from jail

Jailhouselawyer's Blog

A mixture of law, politics, autobiography and humour. Once described as "The Devilish Advocate" (Guardian), I do have the ability to provoke a response. Sometimes it comes from someone who uses a thought process, and sometimes from jerks usually associated with the knee.

Murderess goes missing from open prison where she is serving a life sentence

Jane Andrews, a former aide to the Duchess of York, was on the run last night after absconding from jail while serving a life sentence for murder.

Andrews killed her boyfriend, Tom Cressman, in 2000 by bludgeoning his head with a cricket bat before plunging a kitchen knife into his chest as he lay asleep in his bed.

She was moved to an open prison earlier this year but was found to be missing from East Sutton Park in Kent when a roll call was carried out on Sunday night.

I should imagine the Old Bill have all cricket shops under watch?

About Me - jailhouselawyer

jailhouselawyer: Hull, East Yorkshire, United Kingdom; John Hirst Hull, East Yorkshire, GB "Who is John Hirst?" the Sun online questioned the day after the UK lost its appeal to the Grand Chamber of the ECtHR in the prisoners votes case. The profile was not very informative nor flattering. But, I don't like the Sun either so we are quits. I was born, at 2 I was put into Dr Barnardo's Homes. What they called care, we refer to it as physical and sexual abuse. I drifted into crime, and spent 35 years in prison. In spite of the system, I reformed and rehabilitated myself with the support of some within and outside of the system. I was transformed from a law breaker into a law-maker. I am firmly committed to prisoners rights, and am a campaigner for penal reform. I live in a 3 bedroom terrace house within a cul-de-sac, and have a dog as a companion. My Latvian friend keeps invading my space and telling me I need a wife. She does keep the house clean and tidy, but loves my dog and calls him her boyfriend... Recently, Viking FM have asked for advice and reports for the news on radio on Criminal Justice issues. In addition, I used to write regularly for Inside Time the National newspaper for prisoners.
