One of two men freed in error from UK prison hands himself in

One of two men who were mistakenly freed from HMP Wandsworth prison has handed himself in to the authorities. William "Billy" Smith, 35, who had been sentenced to 45 months for fraud offences, returned to the prison voluntarily on Thursday, November 6, 2025. He was mistakenly released on Monday, November 3, after a clerical error at the court level incorrectly recorded his sentence as suspended. Smith was filmed smoking a cigarette and smiling as he walked back into the facility.
