Escaped ex-royal aide back in custody

LONDON (AP) - November 25, 2009

Police say Jane Andrews was located early Wednesday near the minimum security prison in southeast England where she had been held. The facility is 45 miles (70 kilometers) southeast of central London.

The 42-year-old former aide disappeared from the prison late Sunday. She was jailed for life in May 2002 after a jury found her guilty of killing her millionaire partner Thomas Cressman.

Andrews was a travel companion and accounts manager for nine years for the duchess, Sarah Ferguson, who was formerly married to Prince Andrew. Andrews left the duchess' service three years before the murder.
