An investigation has been launched into how Ian Huntley, the man convicted for the killing of two ten-year-old girls, was able to attempt suicide in jail. The former school caretaker was yesterday admitted to hospital after he tried to take his life by overdosing on drugs in his prison cell at Wakefield prison. He is now back inside the high security jail. This is the third time Huntley, who is serving a 40-year sentence for the killing of Jessica Chapman and Holly Wells in 2002, has tried to end his life. Speaking about the incident, the editor of the Prisons Handbook, Mark Leech, said: "This is a dreadful story for the Prison Service and a huge embarrassment for them, particularly as Huntley is the highest possible security category. "It is going to require some heads to be banged together to sort this out - they really must get to grips with it because this is not the first time, by any means, that Huntley has tried to take his own life.".
