Coffee House Shots: H.M. Chief Inspector of Prisons on accidental prison release
Manage episode 519490688 series 1426752
Britain’s prisons are a legislative problem that has beset successive governments. New revelations show 91 accidental early releases in just six months, the latest in a growing pattern of administrative chaos across the criminal justice system. Between drones delivering drugs, crumbling Victorian buildings, exhausted staff and an ever more convoluted sentencing regime, what is the cause of so many blunders? And what will Labour’s promised reforms actually fix – and are more crises inevitable?
James Heale speaks to Charlie Taylor, H.M. Chief Inspector of Prisons.
Produced by Oscar Edmondson and Megan McElroy.
