A PREDATORY paedophile bishop and close pal of Prince Charles has been freed from prison halfway through his sentence.
Retired Bishop of Gloucester Peter Ball, now 84, was jailed for 32 months in October 2015 for grooming and abusing 18 teenagers and young men.
One later committed suicide.
It later emerged Ball had enjoyed close ties to the future king, who had penned “dozens” of letters to Ball in the past.
They have since been handed over to the Independent Inquiry Into Child Sexual Abuse (IICSA) to investigate.
