Comment on Daniel Khalife pleads not guilty to escaping custody at Wandsworth prison

He may also disagree with the “lawfully detained” bit of the charge, given that he has pleaded not guilty to the original charges he was due to stand trial for. But he doesn’t really have anything to lose either way. There are screaming tabloids on the case now, he might as well spin it out.

I’d have thought they’d want less fuss, so would offer him a deal…but you’re right, I don’t think he’d accept anyway. The media circus is all he’s got.
