Little did she know, however, the sutures holding her skin together would result in botched plastic surgery, an incurable sepsis infection and a gaping three-inch-wide hole in her skull.

Post Office bosses plotted to raid the pensions of wrongly accused sub-postmasters to make up discrepancies in accounts, it was revealed yesterday. Minutes from a 2004 board meeting, produced at the public inquiry into the Horizon scandal, reveal ex-chief operating officer David Miller (pictured) was tasked with targeting 'the pensions of fraudsters' to ensure the company was reimbursed. Quizzed by inquiry counsel Emma Price, Mr Miller denied being the plot's architect, insisting it was 'proposed by somebody else'. Mr Miller also denied comparing Fujitsu, the Japanese technology giant behind the flawed Horizon IT system, to a 'man who had just shoved 15 inches of bayonet up my posterior'.

Sheriff Eric Higgins unlocked the cell doors of a block in the Pulaski County jail in Arkansas for a radical experiment to see if they could govern themselves. The six-week trial was documented by a TV crew and hidden cameras was edited into Unlocked: A Jail Experiment new screening on Netflix. However, the series enraged blindsided local officials who only learned about the show, and the experiment, when the Netflix trailer was released. Inmates made three gallons of illegal 'hooch' and bashed a man for cheating at cards when they were given the run of the jail.

British backpacker is found dead in a shallow water ditch on Thailand's notorious Koh Tao 'Death Island' after vanishing during night out with his girlfriend

www.dailymail.co.uk, April 12, 2024
Theo Bailey, believed to be 31, joined his long-term girlfriend of 10 years Chantal Xerri, 27, for a night out with other travellers on Koh Tao last month. The pair were pictured revelling in the festivities with their fellow holidaymakers on the evening of March 18, before embarking on a pub crawl planned by a local sports bar. But Theo was tragically found dead the next afternoon in a shallow water drainage ditch outside the Rocktopus diving centre, having vanished at some point the night before. Officers said today that the case 'was still open' but they had not made any arrests, believing Theo's death was an accident. Theo's body was discovered near Sairee Beach, the same beauty spot where Brits Hannah Witheridge, 23, and David Miller, 24, were bludgeoned to death in September 2014 - the incident which gave rise to the grim moniker Death Island.

'Death Island's curse: how Koh Tao's holiday paradise became a nightmarish hub of murder, unethical deaths, and rape

www.dailymail.co.uk, April 6, 2024
Koh Tao, once a sun-filled Thai paradise island, exploded into a nightmarish center of murder and rape after two British backpackers were bludgeoned to death nearly a decade ago. Koh Tao has earned a more sinister image among international visitors over the last ten years, with at least 11 Western tourists dying or missing there under unexplained circumstances since 2014. Following a string of tragic events, the tropical holiday hotspot was given the name 'Death Island' or "Murder Island." The deaths have always been described as unfortunate accidents or suicides, but many cases appear to be suspicious to family members of the deceased and missing, and are often left ineffectively investigated. It has long been known as a haven for organised crime and corruption, in which a'corrupt' police force prioritises local interests.

Since two innocent murderers ordered a investigation, two young backpackers who were bludgeoned to death ten years ago have gone through their grief. Both 29, Zaw Lin and Win Zaw Htun (inset), were initially sentenced to death for David Miller (left) and Hannah Witheridge's murder and rape, but a Thai royal decree changed their sentences to life in prison. On a beach on the popular tourist island of Koh Tao in September 2014, David and Hannah, aged 24 and 23 at the time, were discovered. However, Burmese bar employees who were arrested ten years ago are still holding their innocence and requesting an investigation.

PETER HITCHENS: I wrote a book twenty-five years ago, advising that the pillars of our organizations were crumbling under New Labour. Of course, the Left sneered, but now I'm worried that my book has turned into a British obituary

www.dailymail.co.uk, March 9, 2024
I had a burning desire to live in a gritty, frightening Moscow, which was once the capital of a nation I loot. I stepped into the Kremlin's shadow because I wanted to know, investigate, and write about the Communist world, which then happened to be a few hundred miles from the Channel. I was not disappointed. I was not dissatisfied with this other looking glass planet, its squalor and despair, the dignity of many of its citizens, the diet of lies on which they lived, and the true, ghastly aim of its wicked kings were all clear. I was shocked to learn that our own warm country could just have been like this.

England loses by 229 runs to South Africa, leaving their World Cup title defense hanging by a thread

www.dailymail.co.uk, October 21, 2023
MUMBAI: LAWRENCE BOOTH: Last night, England's World Cup defence plumbed new depths after losing the largest one-day total in their history against a tumultuous South Africa, which then collapsed to their humiliating defeat. They were out for 170 in 22 overs when they collapsed by a jaw-dropping 229 runs, eight more than any previous humiliation. Jos Buttler begged his staff to tell the world that they had not lost their one-day mojo, he could not have imagined a show that simply announced it. This was an absolute stinker of a show, exacerbated by Reece Topley's alleged broken finger. And with a third decimal point, England is now at the bottom of the 10-team table, much less than Afghanistan.

As parole eligibility is scheduled for the day after the murder of Dallas Stoller, a suspected serial rapist Bowen Turner could be released from jail next month, as her family'received an automated call to inform them.'

www.dailymail.co.uk, October 12, 2023
An accused serial rapist could be released from jail next month if his parole is ruled for one day after the murder of Dallas Stoller, a convicted murderer. After being charged with assaulting three different people in South Carolina, Bowen Turner, who was 21 years old at the time, was locked into a lenient plea bargain. None of the cases went to trial. When Dallas Stoller was 18 she was reportedly assaulted by Turner at a party. The teen suffered a lot of bullying and criticism after launching her case and then committed suicide on November 14, 2021. Prosecutors dropped her case, but Turner, the son of a top prosecutor for the South Carolina Solicitor's first circuit solicitor, was given a five-year plea deal in connection with the third victim he assaulted. Stoller's family was warned of his impending issuance by an automated phone call.
