SOLVED. (1970s?) version of the New Testament for prisoners

[Kevin]

Years ago in the library I found a version of the New Testament meant for prisoners. I feel like it was from the 1960s or 70s. I vaguely recall it referring to a murder as a 'rubout'. This was supposed to come across as 'hip' to the prison audience.

Thanks in advance! Kevin
