I think we should’ve let him out. Would’ve been a giggle.
Just like he wanted, he only applied to promote the documentary.
This is bad news for the bookies. They could have taken bets on how many minutes it’d be until he did something to get back, because he didn’t really want to be released.
“Bronson has spent most of the past 48 years behind bars, apart from two brief periods of freedom during which he reoffended, for a string of thefts, firearms and violent offences, including 11 hostage-taking incidents in nine different sieges.
Victims included governors, doctors, staff and, on one occasion, his own solicitor.”
I don’t see the point of this when they let other violent criminals out daily.
Drunk drivers, rapists and murderers get released quickly. But a 70 year old man who hasn’t had a fight in years is being kept in until he’s on a zimmer frame just to send a message.
Thing is, he’s the sort of bloke you can sit down with and have a cup of tea with but if you get on his nerves you’ll know about it.
It’d be about two weeks before some moron would try and get a rise out of him for a laugh and he’d end up back in jail.
He was just born in the wrong era.
Nowadays he’d have a tik tok career and could be doing celebrity boxing matches
If he had been released it would only have been a week or less before he would have been holding everyone in the local corner shop hostage.
Worth watching Parole on iplayer if you are interested jn the process.
I think he was mostly trying to raise awareness of the fact that he is locked in a box all day long and only gets 90 minutes outside a day.
Pretty harsh for a guy who’s been in prison for 50 years
Are there any pics of him how he looks now? The media always use pics that make him look crazy from his younger days
Does this mean he’ll die in prison then?
If so what would he have to lose by escalating his previous behaviour as much as he wants?
Shame, would have been a laugh watching him use self scanning for the first time
How can you be kept in prison indefinitely after you’ve served a sentance ?

They let Gary glitter out though. But not Charlie. Jokes.
Shame really, he doesn’t look ready to be released but moving to an open prison looked a good idea.
Bit harsh they’re not gonna at least trial him in a lower security prison, I agree that you can’t just release him from high security out onto the street but if he wants to prove himself at least give him the chance in a less ‘restrictive environment’ 🤷♂️
I dunno, he doesn’t look like he’d be a danger to anything except blue hedgehogs.
At this point the guy likely can’t even function outside of prison. Remember Brooks? Make him more buff.
I feel for the guy but he’s a bit of a loose cannon.
This guy is the literal embodiment of a villain or psycho that’s used in movies and shows, he’d be back in a week but with a string of crimes behind him.
Charles Bronson- keeping roofers in business for life
I didn’t know he actual killed people in real life too.
Meanwhile pedos with hundreds of indecent pictures get a caution . Welcome to the UK justice system
And clearly prison doesn’t work. Prison doesn’t rehabilitate.
If he had kept his head down after the initial £5 robbery he’d have been a free man almost 50 years by now.
But when you continue to commit crimes when released, and continue to commit crimes while in prison, it’s really hard to feel sorry for him.
It’s literally his own doing as to why he’s been in there so long, and why he’ll continue to be in there forever.
If you can’t do the time, don’t do the crime.
The system hasn’t failed him. He has failed the system.
I’ve just read he attacked a child rapist whilst in prison. Give the man an award and release him.
He seems like a right piece of shit. Some people are just not able to be rehabilitated.
