Notorious prisoner Charles Bronson is dubbed one of Britain’s most violent offenders. One of the UK’s longest serving inmates, he has spent most of the past 48 years behind bars, apart from two brief periods of freedom where he reoffended, his public parole hearing was told on Monday.
During the time he has been incarcerated, he has held 11 hostages in nine different sieges – with victims including governors, doctors, staff and, on one occasion, his own solicitor.
