Your report, Sex pest wanted to go back to jail (Oxford Mail, June 14), should be required reading for the judiciary and all the 'bleeding heart' do-gooders that this country is burdened with.
They are always banging the drum and shouting the odds about the 'terrible conditions' of prisons.
Yet here is a man who has re-offended for the sole purpose of getting back inside.
If we had a proper prison regime which struck fear and dread into the criminal fraternity, he might not have been so keen to seek re-admission.
I spent some time as a guard/escort in the Royal Navy detention quarters at Portsmouth in the 1950s.
Believe me, there were very few, if any, second timers there. So far as I am aware, there were no volunteers either. Tom Reeves, Apley Way, Witney
