‘It’s a day you never want to see happen’ – bereaved father on early release (opens the original)
Read excerpt
After the first prisoners were freed under the government’s controversial early release scheme, Jackie Long spoke to Tim Edwards, whose daughter Ellie was killed on Christmas Eve 2022 when a gunman fired into a crowd of people outside a pub on The Wirral. The man convicted of helping the killer to get rid of the vehicle used in the shooting, as well as possessing a prohibited weapon, is among those listed for release this month – a year early.

Early release: Hundreds of prisoners freed in England and Wales (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Hundreds of prisoners in England and Wales are being released before finishing their sentences, as the government said it was essential to ease overcrowding and avoid the justice system collapsing.

‘My dad murdered my mum and won’t tell us where she is’ – daughter of Linda Razzell (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Glyn Razzell was found guilty of killing his estranged wife, Linda, 24 years ago. He’s now served his term in prison and the parole board has decided it’s safe for him to be released. However, his family say he shouldn’t be freed until he’s revealed where their mother’s remains are – something he’s always refused to do. They’re hoping a review of the parole board’s decision, due next week, will take into account ‘Helen’s Law’ – a rule which says offenders mustn’t cause families more trauma by co
