Inmate Walks Out Of Open Prison To Enjoy A Night With His Wife In Boutique Hotel
A brazen prisoner walked out of a notorious open prison to enjoy an overnight stay at a luxury hotel with his wife and even tricked management into giving him the executive room for free.
Douglas Ward, 26, dodged at least four roll calls at North Sea Camp Prison while he was living it up in the Grade II-listed boutique hotel with wife Eileen, 27, over the August bank holiday weekend.A court heard the inmate – who was serving more than five years for firearms offences at the time – was only rumbled when suspicious hotel staff discovered his Facebook page listed his status as a ‘serving prisoner’
By then, Ward had uploaded photographs of him and his wife drinking the contents of the mini-bar in their room at 15-bedroom Cley Hall Hotel, a Georgian property in the centre of Spalding, Lincolnshire.
Mrs Ward then negotiated a second free night after claiming her husband could not drive them back to their home town of Darlington, County Durham, because his ankle was too swollen.
But by then, staff had become suspicious of the couple after noticing Ward wearing ‘a simple crepe bandage on his leg that he thought was not of the type that would be given out by a hospital’.
Mr Cranmer-Brown added: ‘The manager was a bit suspicious. He was concerned there may be some adverse comments on Facebook and made some inquiries.
The prosecutor added: ‘At North Sea Camp there are rolls calls at 5am, 5pm, 8pm and midnight. He was able to evade these checks. It is not entirely clear whether he returned or he just wasn’t checked.
Lincoln Crown Court heard the hotel staff attempted to charge Ward for the room using the credit card details he had supplied when he made the booking, but the transaction did not go through.
The prison in the Lincolnshire Fen village of Freiston was then alerted and arrangements were made for Ward to be transferred to a more secure jail.
‘He discovered some photographs had been uploaded on Facebook which showed the two of them consuming the contents of the mini-bar and noticed that the defendant’s Facebook profile showed he was living at HMP Strange ways.

Driver Crushes Friend To Death After Sharing Ogogoro In Benin
Tragedy struck in Benin City on Monday, as a driver attached to a private firm in Edo State, crushed his friend, Pa Egbe Eghobawaye, to death,after sharing a local gin, popularly known as Ogogoro, together.
The tragedy started when the driver was said to have visited Pa Eghobawaye, who was the Odionwere (oldest man) of Nekpenekpen Street, off First East Circular road in Benin City, and requested for the local gin from the wife of the deceased, who deals in the local gin.
After sharing the Ogogoro with Pa Eghobawaye, said to be in his 80s,he decided to go back to his office, but lost control of the vehicle and crushed his friend to death, to the surprise of residents of the area.
Angry residents were said to have descended on the driver, but he was rescued by some youths, who handed him over to the Police.
The Odionwere was said to be having a shave in front of his house after the drink with his friend, when the truck driver lost control, and hit him.
Wife of the deceased who witnessed the incident, was said to have fainted, and was rushed to the hospital where she was revived.
Brother to the deceased, Mr. Solomon Omoregie, who spoke to newsmen, lamented that “for a company driver to kill my brother like this, is very callous. We will not take the law into our hands and we have told our family members not to take any action by burning the vehicle or by killing the man. We want the police to take up the case and do what is necessary.
At the time of this report, it was gathered that the Odionwere was buried Monday night following his instruction to his children that his corpse should not be deposited in the mortuary.
When contacted, the Police Public Relations Officer, DSP Stephen Onwuche, said the driver had been arrested and that investigations were ongoing to ascertain the real cause of the incident.

I Killed My Friend,Buried Him In Shallow Grave – suspect
Ngbede Omale has confessed to Benue State Police Command how he secretly killed his friend, Agabaidu Omale and buried him in a shallow grave.
Narrating how he committed the crime to Daily Sun at the State Police Headquarters where he is presently cooling his heels, Ngbede said he had a heated argument with his friend in the farm which resulted into a fight.
“I just gave him a little push and he fell down and before I knew it, he was dead. I tried to resuscitate him but to no avail. I didn’t know what to do and there was nobody around. So, I quickly dug a shallow grave and buried him there.”
The suspect, who is now blaming the devil for his crimes said he didn’t intend to kill his friend.
However, when it was announced in the village that Agabaidu was missing, Ngbede kept sealed lips for over eight months until hunters one day discovered his skeleton in the shallow grave where he had been buried.
“I did not intend to kill him. I did not know that he would die. In fact, as soon as I buried him, I came home and confided in one of my cousins after which I ran away from the village. I did not know that my sin would still find me out. I am sorry.
Commissioner of Police in the state, Dibal Yakadi said the bubble burst when the mother of the deceased insisted his son was last seen with Ngbede and a manhunt was launched to nab him.

After realizing the needed money, Elsa underwent a two hour operation which appeared to fix the problem but later started having problems with her balance.
Miekie then took her home washes her, feeds her and cared for her till she totally recovered. ‘At night she still sleeps with me. She cuddles up with me under the duvet. It’s amazing sleeping with a lion,’ she said narrating she has nothing to fear.

My Husband Is A Big Fraudster, I Didn’t Know – Wife Cries Out
When 30-year-old Chinenyere Ogokie met her husband in 2007, never in her wildest imagination did she imagine that a day would come when she would discover that he is a fraudster and wife-beater.
According to the trader who sells cosmetics at Idumota Market in Lagos, “I met my husband, Smart Orire, in 2007 and we got married in 2011. At that time, he was a teacher at Coker area here in Lagos.
“Later, he stopped teaching and started working at the Nigerian Breweries (NB). Our relationship was good and rosy until I discovered that I had married a wolf in sheep clothing.
Taking To Fraud
“His real attitude began to manifest. He began to engage himself in fraudulent activities that led to his sack. He collected contributions from a thrift co-operative and then refused to pay back to his co-workers. His colleagues reported him to the management and he was sacked after the matter was investigated.
“Immediately after his sack, Smart went into sales of home appliances. It was at this point I began to notice changes in his attitude and people started coming to my house claiming to have been duped by him.
“I kept warning him about his fraudulent activities, but he wouldn’t listen, saying that it was the ranting of a woman. Later, I discovered that he was defrauding people because he wanted to travel outside the country. When I confronted him, he denied, claiming that he had no such plans.
“When the heat became too much after his victims started trailing him, he fled. Some of the people he defrauded came with soldiers to my house and parked my property. One of them took my generator and invited the police to arrest me. I was constantly harassed by people he defrauded all because I am his wife, even though I didn’t know when they had their transactions.”
His Arrest
“Recently, one of them invited police officers from Amukoko who arrested me and later, they were able to arrest my husband. I was granted bail after the police investigations revealed that I was not part of the fraud.
“Recently, one of them invited police officers from Amukoko who arrested me and later, they were able to arrest my husband. I was granted bail after the police investigations revealed that I was not part of the fraud.
“Because it was a bailable offence, he was later granted bail. After he was released, he came back and gave me the beating of my life for not supporting him at the station. He accused me of informing the police where he had fled to, that made them arrest him. He threatened to harm me any time he saw me. After beating me that night, he fled again. Since then, I have not seen him. The worst part of it is that every day, new victims of his nefarious activities keep coming to harass me and threaten my little son.”
My Regrets
The mother of one lamented further: “I disobeyed my father, who was against my union with Smart. I thought I was following my heart when I went ahead and married him. Look at what false love has brought me into. I never knew that he was using me as the fool. I never knew that I married a ‘419ner’. Our marriage produced our son whose name is Emmanuel Orire. I never knew that the father of my son is a ‘419ner’. God knows that I am innocent. I am pleading with the Lagos State Commissioner of Police, and Human right activists to come to my rescue.”

Schurrle Slams Mourinho Over Trust Issues
The former Chelsea player Andre Schurrle has revealed why he left the London side halfway through last season’s campaign.
The young German who now plies his trade with Wolfsburg said he left Stamford Bridge last summer because Jose Mourinho didn’t believe in his qualities.
Schurrle told The Times: “I had a good time at Chelsea and was accepted in the team, so it’s difficult to explain why I left.
“My performances were good as well, but there was a time in my second season when I felt I didn’t have the manager’s trust anymore and I didn’t play many matches from the start.
“I don’t know why Mourinho didn’t trust me. It all felt a bit weird to me. I started a few games, was on the bench for a few, then started some more.
“It was up and down the whole time. I had a lot of good talks with the manager and respect him a lot, as he told me to my face what he wanted me to do. I had some very good games, but there was often an ordinary game soon afterwards as well.
“I didn’t get any consistency from the manager so found it hard to produce my best. That’s probably the biggest reason I wanted to leave.
“It was difficult to leave, but when I had the chance to come back to Germany to join an awesome club like Wolfsburg I felt it was a good decision.
In his 1st years at Chelsea, Schurrle netted eight goals in 30 Premier League appearances.
The 24-year-old however decided to move on halfway through his second year after falling out of favour with the coach
