Philip Musson questions the decision to reconsider Colin Pitchfork's bid for freedom.
The uncle of a girl raped and murdered by Colin Pitchfork says he is "never free from the pain he has caused".
Dawn's uncle Philip Musson asked what guarantee of safety could be given to the public if he was released. An example of this was "his prisoner offender manager's views had allegedly not been taken into account", Mr Musson said. "In my view, there are some crimes that are so horrendous that release from prison is not appropriate, these are two such crimes. There is no parole for Linda or Dawn, no opportunity to pick up their lives again."for reconsideration in December 2023 and this was considered and granted by a reconsideration member of the Parole Board in February 2024."
