Boy George released from prison
By CMU Editorial | Published on Tuesday 12 May 2009
Well, we said yesterday that Boy George could be out of prison this month, and we were right. He was released yesterday. Which, you’ll no doubt have noticed, is this month.
As previously reported, George was given a 15 month sentence in January for falsely imprisoning and beating up male escort, Audun Carlsen, who the singer believed had stolen files from his laptop, at his Shoreditch flat in 2007. Although he is being released early, he will have to wear an electronic tagging device and obey a curfew.
