Major New Zealand Criminals

Recently in INT, we have all chosen a topic to research and write about that is to do with New Zealand, I chose to research different famous criminals. One of the criminals I chose to research was prison escapee George Wilder. George escaped prison 3 different times. The first escape George was serving time for burglary and car theft when he scaled the highest wall in New Plymouth Prison. When he was on the run, his ability to stay one step ahead from the rozzers amused the public eye. The Harrison Morrison Quartet wrote a song about his exploits ‘George Wild(er) N.Z. Boy’.
