Money well spent.

"Killers and rapists are claiming weekly state handouts while locked up for their horrendous crimes, it emerged today.
Up to 150 criminally insane patients are paid at least £84.50 a week incapacity benefit.
Some would even be eligible for top-up payments of up to £17.75 a week, depending on their age.
The payments mean killers or rapists will be paid almost as much as a typical single old age pensioner who receives £92 a week.
Some of those claiming the benefit are housed at the Broadmoor maximum-security hospital in Berkshire. ‘It’s a scandal,’ a source there said.

One patient had saved more than £12,000."
