Kwasaki Posted June 17, 2023 Share Posted June 17, 2023 UK parole board who are these people. If I was father of one of the daughters he killed and his was released I would find him and kill him and hope to get away with it but not care really.

stratocaster Posted June 18, 2023 Share Posted June 18, 2023 What makes it even more unbelievable is that he was previously released, and had to be recalled to prison for breaking the terms of his release license, by loitering outside girls schools. He also was observed approaching young girls in the street. In the UK one in five murders are committed by former murderers released on parole. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kwasaki Posted June 18, 2023 Author Share Posted June 18, 2023 What annoys me also is it seems to me that these parole people don't take into account of the victims families. There be allowing him to get married next like the other geezer in the news who killed 3 women. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Victims and their families are able to make representations to the Parole Board, and their views are supposed to be taken into account. As the law currently stands there is no legal route to prevent Bellfield marrying in prison, it’s certainly nothing to do with the Parole Board. Raab promised to introduce legislation to prevent such marriages, but didn’t. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pitchfork was out one time before so the parole couldn't of taken any notice of victims obviously saying no to release. As for Bellfield forget legal just common sense will do. Murderers like Bellfield shouldn't have rights to marry also will they be letting him out sometime to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yellowtail Posted June 18, 2023 Share Posted June 18, 2023 Everyone knows incarceration and even the death penalty are not deterrents. Society has failed these tormented individuals, and society needs to show them some compassion and give them the help they need. We can't make bad people good, but we can make sick people well. We, as a society need to love them until they can learn to love themselves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theoldgit Posted June 18, 2023 Share Posted June 18, 2023 @treetopsMaybe you might want to research the official data published by the ONS rather than relying on “Bings chat box thingy” as the evidence to support your claim that “one in five murders are committed by former murderers released on parole”. The Bot thingy has informed you that 348 murders were committed by those under the supervision of the Prison and Probation Service, the Bot thingy doesn’t claim, according to your quote, that they had previously been convicted a murder or had even served a custodial sentence.

It's not my claim, just contributing to the conversation. I did check the ONS but couldn't find the breakdown, so please provide a link if you have it. I did subsequently find the link to homicides, hence my query to cleopatra2 whose numbers roughly tie up with those of all homicides, which includes murder and manslaughter. Granted the figures only mention those on probation, not necessarily those convicted of murder but I've since found the original article mentioned by the Bing thingy (link below) and it refers to the figures being derived from Quote . . . . the government's recording of serious further offences (SFOs), which refer to specific violent and sexual crimes – including murder and rape – committed by former inmates on probation. so it's not as if they were on probation for minor offences. All of this means the figures given originally appear credible IMO. Here's the original article I found so please direct your incredulity to the publishers (Yahoo News - fairly credible source I think) rather than someone who at least tried to verify the point being discussed with no pre-conceived bias either way. Thank you. https://uk.news.yahoo.com/revealed-shocking-number-of-murders-committed-by-prisoners-on-probation-153200604.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was recalled to prison for approaching and trying to chat to young women. Not young girls. The recall did not mention anything about hanging about outside schools.

stratocaster Posted June 21, 2023 Share Posted June 21, 2023 Unfortunately we will never know the real reason as since 2020 all parole board hearings are private. In 2021 the government amended the rule that if concerned persons made requests the hearing could be made public. In Pitchfork's case requests to make both his hearings public were denied by the parole board for the following reasons. a) Mr Pitchfork does not wish the hearing to be held in public. b) Due to the nature of his offending, to ensure Mr Pitchfork’s safety, his identity is only revealed when it is necessary, including within the prison estate. c) Mr Pitchfork has changed his name by deed poll twice to keep himself safe. d) The ongoing risk of serious harm to Mr Pitchfork is as a result of media attention. Significant threats of harm have been made to Mr Pitchfork and the Probation Service has ongoing concerns about vigilante incidents. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
