Well, what else is there to do?
Magistrates have been left ‘terrified’ after their personal details were accidentally sent to a prison workshop.
Her Majesty’s Courts Service revealed today the year book, featuring names and phone numbers, was delivered by mistake to a print workshop at HMP Standford Hill on the Isle of Sheppey in Kent.
It contained details of members across Norfolk – but not their addresses.
The area director has written to all the magistrates apologising for the error.
One Norfolk magistrate said: ‘It doesn’t particularly concern me as anyone can look in the phone book and find my name, but some magistrates could be really worried.
‘There will be those who will be terrified.’
Well well…. bitten by the hand that feeds, eh?
Shame.

Doesn’t seem to bother judges/magistrates when witness/jury member details are bandied about, yet they cry their eyes out when their details get touted around. Don’t get me wrong, this is a cock up and shouldn’t have happened and I wouldn’t like to see anyone terrorised (I might make an exception for coppers with speed cameras, terrorise away) at their home.
