Maximum security prisoner Stephen Jamieson ties bed sheets together, climbs jail wall to escape from Goulburn prison

(ABC NEWS) A maximum security prisoner has escaped from Goulburn Correctional Centre after tying bed sheets together to climb over a jail wall.


Stephen Jamieson, 28, had been in segregation after being identified as a suspect over the discovery of a man-made hole in the floor which was found in the prison earlier this month.

Jamieson was last seen at about 12:50pm Tuesday and was wearing prison greens at that time.

He had been in custody since 2013 and is serving 12 years in prison for armed robbery.

NSW Corrective Services Commissioner Peter Severin said the prisoner escaped after he cut through a metal gate at the back of a small secure exercise yard that is attached to each segregation cell.

Not exactly the James Bond style fiasco that happened in the States.

Cut through a metal gate at the back of the exercise yard, throw a line of bedsheets over the wall and head off to root the missus/closest kangaroo.

You got to go a long way to beat Guzman's escape in Mexico. A red carpet escape.
