Escaped fugitive does his 'time' working in prison!

















Dear All

Most wanted men on the run have a goal, to evade prison.

In America, a man wanted on suspicion of drug and fraud crimes in th Czech Republic has been arrested in an American maximum security prison.

He was working as a guard.

Everyone needs a job so, Michal Preclik’s from Czech Republic decided to get involved in the penal corrections system.

His employers at a Nebraska prison made no such checks when they hired him on his suitability for the role.

It took a year before the error was spotted and only because they wanted to promote him to a more senior position.

Senator Heath Mello said;

“This is just unbelievable that the state of Nebraska is hiring international criminals”.

Makes me wonder are local criminals are working there too?

The Department of Correctional Services is reviewing its hiring practices follow the embarrassment as they don’t where to look after this massive gaff.

Of course the obvious thing to ask, will be get a reduction in sentence for time already served as a guard?

Only in America folks do we get these wonderful stories, you have to wonder did he decide to give up a life of crime and wanted to go straight?

He has been charged with violating US immigration laws and the Czech authorities still have their outstanding claim.

It seems that Michal Preclik’s prison career is moving in the wrong direction.

Yours sincerely
