@ elgreen: From the story, this wasn’t a Parole board release, he was just another prisoner who had served half his time, which made him eligible for release. That is the bit I don’t understand. If one is sentenced for 10 years, then one should serve 10 years. otherwise, sentence should read 5 years, if you are going to be released at half-time. Or better yet, sentence for 15 years, with an option of release at 10 years for good behaviour, so you actually serve the 10 years ,

The upside is that we now know this fellow, so even if the Sexual Predators Register isn’t functioning, we can watch out for him

I’ve always been concerned about what would affect shane’s release would be on gangs in Bermuda & our morally deteriorating society. He has been considered an icon for years by wannabe thugs. Now he’s escaped & pandora’s box is open. He needs to be caught ASAP!

He has also assaulted males but since they were not what the police deem upstanding citizens they made it difficult for them to press charges against him.

He’s not only a danger to women.

People always looking to blame the Police. Those words came directly from Eddie Lamb who is the Commissioner of Prisons

How much damage will this ‘low-risk’ individual do before he is returned to custody? He didn’t fake ‘good behaviour’, he was subdued into it by medication and a controlling environment_thus gaining an early release date. I question the collective judgement of the Parol Board and fear for my safety.

Agreed! This idiot should have never been on work release with such a violent past. He’s a convicted sex offender and was also diagnosed with paranoid schizophrenia. Nice job Corrections! Bermuda’s system…..I tell you.

In 2005 he was sentenced to 15 years. So now after only 7 years he was reaching the end of his prison sentence. Seriously??? Give me a break!! Lock him up for the other 8 years for pulling this stunt. He obviously doesn’t deserve to get out any time soon!

I could have sworn that I read in an earlier report that the police said he isn’t a threat to the public. Now it seems he has a violent past. Please make up your minds!!!

The sad part is he obviously likes jail & we as tax payers will be paying for his dumb @ss for a couple of more years. Now that’s the irony of all of this. They need to ship his dumb @ss to a real prison instead of the hotel we have here called west gate, the only thing you learn up there is lights out smdh.

Wait a minute…. Didn’t they say this guy is not dangerous, hence why he was eligible for work release? Sexual assault, mentally ill, addicted to drugs… I would say that’s a very dangerous combination.

It takes them a week to let us know he’s a convicted multiple rapist. Didn’t they think that little detail was important for the public to know?

And what the hell are they doing. He’s obviously dangerous. Yet they let him out and hope he comes back every day? Is this what we expect when the court locks up a multiple rapist for 15 years? That he’s let out every day to go to work? Where’s the punishment in that? Where’s the protection that society was supposed to get by locking this creep up?

And if he was jailed for 15 years in 2005, why is he apparently ‘coming to the end of his sentence’? Another criminal being given automatic parole again? I thought new measures were going to be put in place to stop automatic parole for serious crimes. Isn’t serious sexual assault on women considered serious any more?

Y is this man out any way? I’m just a bit confused. This man was convicted of sexual crimes to women and deemed to be coo-coo in the head? But he was stable enough to be trusted to go work release?
I give up Bermuda… I really do….

while out on work release you run, that is stupid!!! He’s almost free he must have a boyfriend at westgate, what a dumb A$$!!!!!!!

To any prisoner, isn’t the Farm better than Westgate? Think about it!! So Mr. Todd, don’t know you, but my advise is to return now because the longer you are on the run Im sure each day is additional time added and more than like at Westgate.
That is so silly to be given a little freedom of day release and act like a foolish child running wild. Your too old for this nonsense. Give yourself up and return, the police can be out there looking for murderers and not wasting time on you! Anyone who is harboring him think!!!!!

Announce that he will get 30 days for every day he remains on the loose! He will come back soon. He must pay for all the wasted money and resources that are being used to find him.

We laso must finally start punishing individuals that harbour criminals and runaways. We always hear in the press releases that individuals found to be hiding and assisting escaped criminals or runaway youths will be prosecuted. But they NEVER are! Which is why nobody listens, nobody is fearful or the consequences, and why it keeps happening. I hope nothing has happened to him and if we find that nothing has, then we MUST ARREST AND PUNISH those helping him. We are wasting money that we cant afford to waste right now on this selfish individual and those that are helping him. If the police visit his family, known friends and family a few times a day, eventually someone (even a loved one) will break down a speak up. Someone knows or has the means to know.
