Mistakenly released prisoner hands himself in amid fresh pressure on Lammy
"From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging."
"At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story. The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls."
The Independent covers topics from reproductive rights and climate change to Big Tech, investigating matters such as Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC and producing documentaries about women fighting for reproductive rights. The outlet refuses to place reporting behind paywalls and solicits donations to fund reporters and keep journalism accessible. A prisoner, Billy Smith, was mistakenly released and surrendered three days later; he had been sentenced to 45 months for multiple fraud offences. Officials attributed the error to clerical mistakes and systemic strain. Justice Secretary David Lammy said he first learned about the incident on Wednesday morning while questions continue over other mistaken releases and a sex offender still at large.
