Hollywood actor Jason Hoganson was as he was escorted back to just 48 hours after his release. He had served only half of his 18-month sentence under Sir Keir Starmer's contentious scheme last week. However, the inked-up brute, who was imprisoned for his ex-girlfriend, found himself back behind bars two days later despite his early release.
Hoganson, known for his leading role in the cult 1980s film Empire State, allegedly slapped his ex upon showing up at her house the day he was released under Labour's new prison plan. He is also accused of violating his restraining order against the victim. On September 12, Hoganson appeared at Newcastle Magistrates where he pleaded guilty to one count of breaching the restraining order but denied the second.
He also refuted the assault by beating allegations and was subsequently remained in custody pending his trial. Once a rising star in Hollywood, Hoganson gained fame for his role as drifter Pete in the crime thriller Empire State, a beloved film set in London's yuppie docklands featuring Oscar nominee Martin Landau. However, his life took a drastic turn when he fell into drug addiction and a life of crime, resulting in over 100 convictions.

The actor was among 1,700 prisoners released early to alleviate the ongoing overcrowding issue in pris.
