Terry Radford was killed by a man who had been released from prison a day earlier
An MP says the investigation into the death of a Nottinghamshire grandfather has "many similarities" to failings surrounding the Nottingham attacks. Terry Radford was killed by a man who had been released early from a prison sentence a day earlier under a scheme which a coroner has since dubbed "preposterous."
Collins had been serving a three-year sentence for burglary and theft and for the killing of Mr Radford, he was eventually jailed for 21 years for manslaughter on the grounds of diminished responsibility. The killer had been placed in segregation at HMP Ranby after setting fire to his cell twice and injuring a prison staff member with a plastic knife. Lee Anderson, the Reform UK MP for Ashfield, led a debate about the case in Parliament on Wednesday .
Speaking directly to the justice minister attending, Mr Anderson added: "I want to ask the minister to look at the family here in the public gallery. This family, who lost Terry. We have two of his sons here, they have lost their dad, their loving father.
