Prisoner Escape near Llucmajor: How Secure Are Prisoner Transports in Mallorca?

Answer

How many officers should escort a detainee on long transport routes in Mallorca?

The ideal number depends on the route, the risk level and whether the transport crosses rural areas. The incident near Llucmajor raised the point that two officers may be too few if one is injured or distracted by a collision. More staff or rapid backup can make a transport much easier to control.
