Charles Bronson is eligible for parole. The hearing got underway this week when the "most violent prisoner" in the UK told the review panel that he had been betting big on sports while he was incarcerated. When Bronson was imprisoned for armed robbery in 1974, his colorful and turbulent past began. Since then, he has specialized in living behind bars, frequently getting into fights that ensured the extension of his detention. But it doesn't seem to bother him, and despite being tired of constantly eating porridge, he doesn't seem to mind his house. He nonetheless acknowledged being a locked-up sharp and claimed to have won £1,500 in wagering. Although it might not appear to be much, for someone it is a lot.
