Missing prisoner returned
A missing murderer has been arrested after four days on the
run.
Vincent Saywell was on temporary release from Blantyre
House open prison, in Goudhurst, when he failed to return.
The 54-year-old was found in Plymouth yesterday.
Saywell is the third prisoner to go missing from Blantyre House
five months.
In June, two inmates went missing from the facility in just
a fortnight.
Raymond Atkins, 39, had been allowed home for family
reasons, but did not stay at an agreed bail hostel on
Saturday, June 30.
Just two weeks earlier, a murderer who stabbed a teacher to
death was on the run for three days after escaping from
Blantyre House.
Jamie Frater, 38, failed to return following work at a
charity shop in Headcorn.
He had been convicted in 1993 for murdering 45-year-old Geoffrey
du Rose and jailed for life.
