It was a short stint of freedom for a prisoner from the Westmorland Institution in Dorchester. At eight o’clock last night, Harry Hamilton Davies was taken back into custody after escaping from the prison and was quickly transferred to a medium security facility.
Hamilton-Davies is serving a sentence of two years seven months for conspiracy to commit an indictable offence involving the Importation of Drugs and Trafficking. A complete review of how the prisoner escaped is underway.
