WALES: Shock over butchers early release - (Western Mail)
February 16, 2008 – 4:54 pmWilliam Tudor, responsible for an E.coli outbreak that killed a five-year-old boy and infected more than 150 other people, spent barely 12 weeks in jail, it was revealed yesterday.
The butcher was given a 12-month prison sentence at Cardiff Crown Court in September after he admitted supplying E.coli-contaminated meat to a number of Welsh schools.
But he was released with an electronic tag after just 12 weeks.
