    .......... two officers.

    Paul Murphy was arrested by prison officers? No wonder he's whinging.

    With his history, I can't understand how he only had two unarmed guys with him at the time. Eazy-peezy for a guy like that.

    Why did 6 prison officers grab Paul Murphy?

    Ah, I see "officers" is the same regardless of where its used? Maybe they should have sent 6 army officers?
    Maybe Paul and his couple of hundred mates to took to hold on to one woman could keep hold of the prisoner?


    Anywho, 1 guy could have kept him under control if he wasn't let out of the cuffs...................

    There were three with him

    From what I remember of them in the hospital in Portlaoise usually one guy would be handcuffed to the prisoner and the other two escorting, obviously took off the handcuffs here

    "A Glaswegian was yesterday given 22 life sentences after travelling to London to raise cash through armed robbery "


    "Brockwell, who had previous convictions, was told the sentence was equivalent to 13 years in jail. He could seek parole after six years"


    That's not bad (from the criminals point of view) 22 life sentences, out in 6 or 8 years,

    And people say the judicial system here is fcuked up

    How on earth can 22 life sentences be the equivalent of 13 years imprisonment? What's the point in that like?!

    I know. That doesn't mean he was ever considered one of Britain's most violent men, though. If he was he wouldn't have been granted unaccompanied day release, would he?
    You have a lot of faith in the UK justice system.

    I'm surprised you haven't offered this criminal a room in your house, to hide in, yet.

    I wonder what he was doing in hospital, was it self inflicted and planned that far in advance. Probably!

    Diabeties Clinic apparently so that theory bites the dust!! Was def planned in advance though seeing as there was a bike waiting for him - that guy no doubt provided the knife as well.

    You sad f *ck..

    A Prison Officer is in a very serious condition after being stabbed, a scumbag like this is on the loose and liable to harm anyone else that stands in his way and that's what you come up with???

    Same mindset obviously.

    A regular visitor here and quite comfortable thank you.
    Some things are unnecessary though and over the top even here.
    Anyone with a small bit of common sense should see that.

    Will his comment be as funny if that Officer dies tonight???

    Last I heard he's in an extremely serious condition so it's not entirely implausible.

    You'll find most of his posts are like that. You know how, when you were 13, you contradicted everything your parents said?

    Like that.

    He's stable. I work in prison and we were briefed just before going home this evening. He's going to be ok.

    Where did he get the knife out of? Not the type of thing that can be craftily concealed up your hole.

    Given to him or planked somewhere by his accomplice on the bike I presume.

    This one is easy... set up a false betting shop with female workers and just wait for him to rob it; then simply arrest him and return him to the hospital to continue his treatment.
