Who Went To See Michael Shields When He Was In Prison In Bulgaria?

Answer Question

1 Answer - Sort by: Date | Rating

    Michael was visited by his family on a few occasions whilst in prison in Bulgaria. Melissa traveled across Europe to see Michael and said how difficult conditions were for him. "He seems to be getting treated like everyone else in the prison. But he shares a cell with four Bulgarian men. He doesn't get to hear English so it's quite hard for him in jail. Their standard of living is completely different to ours."

    In May, the Bishop of Liverpool, The Right Reverend James Jones, was granted permission to visit Michael in his jail cell to say prayers with him after previous requests had been denied. He looked Michael in the eye and asked him if he had done it. "He said to me gently and firmly 'No, I didn't'," Rt Rev Jones told the Liverpool Echo.

    Michael's case also attracted both news broadcasters and newspapers. He was therefore visited by numerous journalists.
