包括暴力和性犯罪者在内的非法囚犯释放在联合王国激增,引发了政治和公众的强烈反弹,司法部长David Lammy因未能回答议会关于错误的问题而面临批评。 A surge in wrongful prisoner releases in the UK, including violent and sex offenders, has sparked political and public backlash, with Justice Secretary David Lammy facing criticism for failing to answer parliamentary questions about the errors. 在截至2025年3月的一年中,260多名囚犯被错误地释放——增加了128%——其中90名是暴力或性犯罪者,包括后来被捕的Kaddour-Cherif和Billy Smith。 Over 260 inmates were mistakenly freed in the year to March 2025—a 128% increase—90 of them violent or sex offenders, including Kaddour-Cherif and Billy Smith, who was later apprehended. 拉米承认监狱系统正处于危机之中，理由是过时的纸质流程和“要攀登的山”，同时启动改革，包括独立调查和任命林恩·欧文斯夫人领导变革。 Lammy acknowledged the prison system is in crisis, citing outdated paper-based processes and a "mountain to climb," while launching reforms, including an independent investigation and appointment of Dame Lynn Owens to lead changes. 包括James Cartlidge议员在内的批评者指责Lammy违反《部长法》,没有澄清是否涉及寻求庇护者罪犯,而官员们指出,错误从上届政府下的17个上升到每年22个。 Critics, including MP James Cartlidge, accused Lammy of breaching the Ministerial Code by not clarifying if asylum seeker offenders were involved, while officials noted a rise in errors from 17 under the prior government to 22 annually.
