LET me be clear, I do not condone anything outside the law.

Nonetheless, I have been perturbed ever since he sorry saga re forger Shaun Greenhalgh began.

Why was this obviously talented individual not spotted, nurtured and pointed in the right direction whilst at school?

Did his talent, some would say genius, not manifest itself until later?

However, he has paid the price courtesy of HMP — a stigma which an never be erased. So I hope he is now able to give society the benefit of his creativity and to himself the consequential rewards from now on under his own name.
