Lee Rigby's killer 'is Britain's most dangerous prisoner'

Lee Rigby's killer 'is Britain's most dangerous prisoner'



The man who murdered Lee Rigby is 'radicalising' inmates and has been called the most dangerous prisoner in Britain but staff say they lack the resources to tackle the growing problem.

Home-grown Islamic extremist Michael Adebolajo, 31, has been 'brainwashing' other inmates and has been branded 'violent, unpredictable and a major danger to other prisoners.'

Adebolajo is inspired by ISIS and prison sources say that he has radicalised dozens of other prisoners at HMP Frankland in County Durham, according to The Mirror.



A prison official said: 'Adebolajo spends most of his waking hours preaching his distorted form of Islam to anyone who will listen.

'He sees every inmate as a potential Islamic State soldier whether they are Muslims or not.

'He has a big personality and is very charismatic and some of the more vulnerable prisoners will fall under his spell. He is a very dangerous individual.'



Born in Lambeth, South London, Adebolajo is now considered so dangerous that prison staff say that they lack the resources to adequately monitor the situation.

The prison also holds other major criminals, including child murderer Ian Huntley, Yorkshire Ripper Peter Sutcliffe  and serial killer Levi Bellfield.

The prison source said that Adebolajo's present purpose in life is to recruit as many Jihadis as possible.



'If he is suspected of trying to radicalise other inmates we step in and move him.

'But even in prison Adebolajo cannot be watched all the time. We don't have the staff or the resources.'

Adebolajo has been given a 'special category' status and has even converted non-Muslim to his twisted interpretation of Islam.

Adebolajo's internment at HMP Frankland costs the British taxpayer £1500 per week.

He brutally killed Lee Rigby with accomplice Michael Adebowale on May 22, 2013.

They were jailed for 45 years and life respectively for killing the off-duty soldier near his barracks.

The pair knocked him down with a car before hacking him to death with a meat cleaver and knives in an attack that shocked the world.
