Alfred George Hinds

George Hinds escaped from Nottingham Prison after sneaking through the locked doors of prison and going over a 20-foot prison wall. He then used his charm to make a second successful prison escape until his arrest two years later after he was stopped in an unregistered vehicle. In 1966, Hinds published a personal account of his escapes and his clashes with the English legal system in a book he titled Contempt of Court which earned him celebrity status
