Prisoner escape

[spudfan]

It has been reported that a prisoner has escaped from Mountjoy. He is described as a midget who is also a psychic.

So the Gradai have issued a press releases stating "There is a small medium at large..."

I live near a large prison, a few years ago three blokes escaped over the wall and ran off to the station about a mile away, getting onto a southbound train.

Two of them were caught fairly quickly, by being with "known associates", but the third disappeared completely for many months.

He was eventually caught entirely by accident by police on the south coast, solely because he walking to work and looked like a suspect that they were actually after at the time.

Because he had been arrested, albeit mistakenly, they checked his DNA and the truth came out about who he was...

Back in the 70s a suspect bank robber tried to hide on a construction site while being pursued by the Gardai.

Suspect runs into a house picks up a set of plasterers tools and starts plastering a wall, the plasterer and his mate had just left the house to have a break.

Special Branch Officer then runs into the house and asks the "plasterer" if anyone had run into the house before recognising and arresting the suspect.

I can't find any evidence of it online now, but I do remember another prison near here having a very successful art facility in the 1980s, with the intention of rehabilitating offenders. This ran well for many years - until it was discovered that a lot of the paintings, which were done in the style of minor, but collectable, artists from the late 19th and early 20th centuries, were being given to visitors quite innocuously, but then sold through several galleries in London as genuine items.

Ahh now, his mistake there was he should've smeared a load of plaster all over his face...
