- Description
- The parole board need to decide if serial burglar and jewellery store thief Jason should be given a third chance. Jason is questioned about the motivation for his crimes, including using an axe to intimidate a woman in one robbery and falsely imprisoning a victim in another. Professional witnesses support Jason, stating that he’s made progress in prison. But Jason had been given a chance before, when the parole board recommended he be moved to an open prison - and where he absconded. Meanwhile, Jeanette was 24 years old when, along with her co-defendant, she punched, kicked and stamped a man to death. The panel question whether she now has the skills to recognise when her risk is escalating.
