Home Affairs Minister and MLC for Jurby
Instead of avoiding prison, a group of Island residents has volunteered to be locked up for 24 hours.
Sixteen volunteers have put themselves forward to be arrested, taken to Jurby prison, and locked up in a cell overnight.
Home Affairs Minister Juan Watterson and MLC Michael Coleman are among the group taking part on March 5 to 6.
Many involved are raising money for the charity PrisonWorks.
Group leader and trustee for PrisonWorks is Marcia Brabbs says it's dispel some myths:
Overnight sailings cancelled due to adverse weather
Rapist who 'terrorised' his victim told his sentence was 'entirely justified'
Complaints process for health system changed
Discovery of oiled birds 'makes a mockery of our biosphere status'
