Only this time, it's real. T he video shows inmates Adam Hossein Nayeri, Prison Break: True Stories of the Worlds Greatest Escapes Tieu and Bac Duong finding a way through the wall of their cell, hacking through bars and using bed sheets to make it outside and into a white van. It worked, too. Their bid to flee justice is the latest in a long line of audacious break out attempts not all of which were successful In scenes reminiscent of The Shawshank Redeption, Guzman, the billionaire head of the powerful Sinaloa Cartel, fled via a mile long tunnel that ran from his cell to a building under construction outside the prison's perimeter. Eighteen prison staff were also being questioned in connection with his disappearance. El Chapo was later caught again, after some time spent with Sean Penn, and is now back behind bars. Richard Matt, 48, and David Sweat, 34 apparently crawled along tunnels to flee the all-male Clinton Correctional Facility in Dannemora. Alcatraz Federal Penitentiary, a maximum-security prison that sits on a tiny island off the coast of San Francisco, was supposed to be the jail that no man could escape. Clarence Anglin, John Anglin and Frank Morris were serving time for a litany of crimes including bank robbery and car theft when they resolved to flee Alcatraz and its claustrophobic confines. The trio cut holes in their cell walls, leaving behind dummy bodies in their beds to fool guards into thinking they were still incarcerated. A fter exiting the building via a ventilation staff, the men scaled a prison fence and then fashioned a raft from raincoats and contact cement. They cast off into the cold waters of San Francisco Bay at around 10pm. Morris and the two Anglin brothers were never found. An official FBI investigation concluded that while it was feasible that they could have reached the mainland and fled on foot, the strong currents made that unlikely. T he investigation concluded that the three men drowned at sea. However, the film Escape from Alcatraz appears to call that into question, strongly implying that the men reached the mainland. Abagnale committed a series of jaw-droppingly bold crimes, which included although by no means were limited to flying over 1, miles between the ages of 16 and 18 by impersonating a Pan Am cockpit. The con man would ride in the spare seat of the cockpit — although he admits that on countless occasions he was left in charge of the plane while the pilot attended to a call of nature. A fter Prison Break: True Stories of the Worlds Greatest Escapes sentenced to 12 years in prison in the US, Abagnale says he had the fortune of being Prison Break: True Stories of the Worlds Greatest Escapes to a detention facility by a Marshall who had forgotten his prisoner's papers. Abagnale seized upon the opportunity, persuading guards that he was actually an undercover prison inspector. Authorities at the time often used Prison Break: True Stories of the Worlds Greatest Escapes ploy to test their jails, and the guards duly swallowed the bait. A bagnale writes that he was treated much better in prison than other inmates thanks to his 'undercover' status — but the ploy really paid off once he'd enlisted the help of a friend, whom he calls in the book 'Jean Sebring'. Sebring apparently doctored two business cards — one an FBI agent's, the other a prison inspector's — and then smuggled them into the prison for Abagnale, who wasted little time in telling his guards that he needed to speak to the FBI agent. The guards called the number on the agent's card, Sebring picked up, told them that she needed to meet Abagnale outside the prison, and the con man walked straight out of the prison's front door, presumably laughing all the way. In the 20th century, Parkhurst prison on the Isle of Wight was considered to be Britain's answer to Alcatraz — but that didn't deter three men from attempting a meticulously planned Prison Break: True Stories of the Worlds Greatest Escapes. Keith Rose, Andrew Rodger and Matthew Williams were serving time for crimes that included murder and planting a bomb when, on January evening at the very start ofthey made use of a key they had cut themselves to flee Prison Break: True Stories of the Worlds Greatest Escapes correctional facility. R ose, Rodger and Williams used the key to open a series of doors, then cut through a mesh fence and scaled the perimeter wall. They took a taxi to the town of Sandown, where they spent four days trying to steal planes and boats while sleeping rough in a field. The three men Prison Break: True Stories of the Worlds Greatest Escapes eventually discovered by an off-duty prison officer. P arkhurst's security level was downgraded in the aftermath of the escape attempt. Yoga practitioner Choi Gap-bok provided the history books with a new take on prison escape methods. Rather than bend his cell bars out of shape, he bent himself out of shape, slipping through the tiny slot at the bottom of the cell that's used to give prisoners food. The manoeuvre apparently took only 34 seconds. G ap-bok was rearrested Prison Break: True Stories of the Worlds Greatest Escapes days later and placed in a cell with a much smaller food slot. Wetzler, a Slovakian jew, escaped from Auschwitz with fellow inmate Rudolf Vrba in April by hiding in a wood pile that other inmates soaked with tobacco and gasoline to fool guard dogs. After four nights hiding among the wood, the two men donned stolen suits and overcoats and began a 80 mile journey to the Polish border with Slovakia. In his pockets, Wetzler carried a report on the inner workings of the death camp, including a ground plan, details of the gas chambers, and a label from a canister of Zyklon B — the gas that the Nazi's used to kill millions of inmates. It was the first detailed report about Auschwitz that the Allies regarded as credible, and led to the bombing of buildings that housed Nazi officials who dealt with the railway deportations. F rench murderer Pascal Payet has gained international notoriety for his role in a series of daring prison breaks that used helicopters as their modus operandi. Payet's first escape came inwhen he arranged for friends to collect him from the roof of a village prison in a helicopter. Two years later, he orchestrated a rerun of the events to help three more prisoners escape the confines of the jail. Payet was later caught and sentenced to 30 years in prison for murder in Despite being one of France's most closely watched prisoners, he managed to again break free of the law in by taking advantage of Bastille Day celebrations to jump into a hijacked helicopter flown by four masked men.

  • Extremism and Terrorism
    Ireland: Extremism and Terrorism On December 19, 2019, Cloverhill District Court in Dublin granted Lisa Smith bail following an appeal hearing. Smith, a former member of the Irish Defense Forces, was arrested at Dublin Airport on suspicion of terrorism offenses following her return from Turkey in November 2019. According to Irish authorities, Smith was allegedly a member of ISIS. Smith was later examined by Professor Anne Speckhard who determined that Smith had “no interest in rejoining or returning to the Islamic State.” Smith’s trial is scheduled for January 2022. (Sources: Belfast Telegraph, Irish Post) Ireland saw an increase in Islamist and far-right extremism throughout 2019, according to Europol. In 2019, Irish authorities arrested five people on suspicions of supporting “jihadi terrorism.” This included Smith’s November 2019 arrest. An additional four people were arrested for financing jihadist terrorism. Europol also noted a rise in far-right extremism, based on the number of Irish users in leaked user data from the far-right website Iron March. (Source: Irish Times) Beginning in late 2019, concerns grew that the possible return of a hard border between British-ruled Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland after Brexit could increase security tensions in the once war-torn province. The Police Services of Northern Ireland recorded an increase in violent attacks along the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland border in 2019 and called on politicians to take action to heal enduring divisions in society. According to a representative for the New IRA—Northern Ireland’s largest dissident organization—the uncertainty surrounding Brexit provided the group a politicized platform to carry out attacks along the U.K.

  • Transgender Woman 'Raped 2,000 Times' in All-Male Prison
    A transgender woman was 'raped 2,000 times' in all-male prison Transgender woman 'raped 2,000 times' in all-male prison 'It was hell on earth, it was as if I died and this was my punishment' Will Worley@willrworley Saturday 17 August 2019 09:16 A transgender woman has spoken of the "hell on earth" she suffered after being raped and abused more than 2,000 times in an all-male prison. The woman, known only by her pseudonym, Mary, was imprisoned for four years after stealing a car. She said the abuse began as soon as she entered Brisbane’s notorious Boggo Road Gaol and that her experience was so horrific that she would “rather die than go to prison ever again”. “You are basically set upon with conversations about being protected in return for sex,” Mary told news.com.au. “They are either trying to manipulate you or threaten you into some sort of sexual contact and then, once you perform the requested threat of sex, you are then an easy target as others want their share of sex with you, which is more like rape than consensual sex. “It makes you feel sick but you have no way of defending yourself.” Mary was transferred a number of times, but said Boggo Road was the most violent - and where she suffered the most abuse. After a failed escape, Mary was designated as ‘high-risk’, meaning she had to serve her sentence as a maximum security prisoner alongside the most violent inmates. “I was flogged and bashed to the point where I knew I had to do it in order to survive, but survival was basically for other prisoners’ pleasure,” she said.

  • Doing Policing
    DOING POLICING OFFICER 1 My first station was Ballymena. Ballymena in the 1960s was a thriving town, industrious with a thriving farming community around it. ‘The Troubles’ of the 1950s and early 60s, which was mainly confined to a Border Campaign, had ended. So, it was a very nice time in Ballymena with Showbands and Ballrooms for a young man to enjoy. I really enjoyed that, and I went to do duty in Portrush, for two summer seasons to supplement the local police down there; Portrush in those days was the holiday Mecca of the country. I met William Martin, the Sergeant there, who was the author of the ‘Black Manual’ or ‘Code’ (RUC Code of Conduct) which we had to study. He had lots of legal books around his office, when he found out I had passed the Sergeants Exam he brought me in and treated me as an’ Assistant Sergeant’. He actually allowed me to stand in for him one or two days when he was off, much to the chagrin of the older men who had been there a lifetime. The community got on well with us they wanted to help us and the holiday visitors wanted their photograph taken with us. I remember one occasion I was on mobile patrol in a 2 door Ford Anglia car, to get into the back you had to pull forward the front seat. I got a call to deal with a ‘Simple Drunk’ causing annoyance on the Main Street, I went round, and there he was showing all the signs of a drunk man but doing no real harm.

  • ABSTRACT Title of Dissertation
    ABSTRACT Title of dissertation: SLAVE SHIPS, SHAMROCKS, AND SHACKLES: TRANSATLANTIC CONNECTIONS IN BLACK AMERICAN AND NORTHERN IRISH WOMEN’S REVOLUTIONARY AUTO/BIOGRAPHICAL WRITING, 1960S-1990S Amy L. Washburn, Doctor of Philosophy, 2010 Dissertation directed by: Professor Deborah S. Rosenfelt Department of Women’s Studies This dissertation explores revolutionary women’s contributions to the anti-colonial civil rights movements of the United States and Northern Ireland from the late 1960s to the late 1990s. I connect the work of Black American and Northern Irish revolutionary women leaders/writers involved in the Student Non-Violent Coordinating Committee (SNCC), Black Panther Party (BPP), Black Liberation Army (BLA), the Republic for New Afrika (RNA), the Soledad Brothers’ Defense Committee, the Communist Party- USA (Che Lumumba Club), the Jericho Movement, People’s Democracy (PD), the Northern Ireland Civil Rights Association (NICRA), the Irish Republican Socialist Party (IRSP), the National H-Block/ Armagh Committee, the Provisional Irish Republican Army (PIRA), Women Against Imperialism (WAI), and/or Sinn Féin (SF), among others by examining their leadership roles, individual voices, and cultural productions. This project analyses political communiqués/ petitions, news coverage, prison files, personal letters, poetry and short prose, and memoirs of revolutionary Black American and Northern Irish women, all of whom were targeted, arrested, and imprisoned for their political activities. I highlight the personal correspondence, auto/biographical narratives, and poetry of the following key leaders/writers: Angela Y. Davis and Bernadette Devlin McAliskey; Assata Shakur and Margaretta D’Arcy; Ericka Huggins and Roseleen Walsh; Afeni Shakur-Davis, Joan Bird, Safiya Bukhari, and Martina Anderson, Ella O’Dwyer, and Mairéad Farrell.
