When Amy Sharp saw her mugshot on social media, after she escaped from a correctional facility, she commented on the post and asked 7 News Sydney to use a more flattering one.

She was being held on account of “property offences” – whatever that means – and escaped just after 3PM on Friday 19 August.

7 News Sydney was kind enough to share the bulletin:
