If neutrinos can move faster than light speed, then can they escape from a black hole?
If so, then would the life of a black hole be reduced?

This is good advice to all.Drakkith said:Let's wait and see if neutrino's really can travel FTL.
A black hole is a region of space with a gravitational pull so strong that nothing, including light, can escape from it. It is formed when a massive star collapses on itself.
Black holes form when a massive star runs out of fuel and can no longer sustain its own weight. The core of the star collapses, creating a singularity, which is a point of infinite density and gravity.
The event horizon is the point of no return for anything that approaches a black hole. Once an object crosses the event horizon, it is impossible for it to escape the gravitational pull of the black hole.
Neutrinos are subatomic particles that have no charge and very little mass. They are one of the most abundant particles in the universe and are constantly passing through us, but because they interact very weakly with matter, they are difficult to detect.
Yes, black holes can emit neutrinos through a process called Hawking radiation. As particles near the event horizon of a black hole, some may be pulled in while others escape. The escaping particles can be in the form of neutrinos.
