The prison were very keen to downgrade JB but this was overturned because the relatives complained
You said you can get the information regarding Jeremy being violent
I await this information with bated breath
I have come to learn that UK prisons often make the mistake of downgrading prisoners. Jeremy Bamber's situation would have been no different to all the other prisoners who were wrongly downgraded.
Prisoners are kept in certain prisons due to their risk factors i.e: risk of escape, risk to public etc.
I guarantee you Jackie there is information held on Jeremy's prison security file that he will not have disclosed to anyone, other than a solicitor if need be. And of course solicitors are under an oath to protect their clients.
Jeremy Bamber is in an A Cat prison for a reason.
As David learned yesterday, not all details are disclosed to the public, hence why there was no record of Jeremy's violent attack on another prisoner.
Following confession SH was told he would remain in open conditions. However, some months later he was transferred to closed conditions. According to prison records he had stated he would abscond and kill himself. The open prison were providing 24 hour care in custody. He was told Wayland prison had better facilities to care for him.
He was transferred back to a closed prison where 24 hour care was not available. At this point, he was at high risk of ending his life.
In the notes between the psychologist and NOMS it was suggested SH was no longer a D Cat prisoner but in the eyes of the law he was. No efforts were made by any prison staff to have SH's status downgraded. The fact he had disclosed by now an awful lot of disturbing information, had suggested he would abscond and the prison had changed his risk factors - he remained a D-Cat prisoner.
So even as recent as 2013 UK prisons were still making mistakes regarding a prisoners status and risk.
