Pitchfork was jailed for life in 1988 after raping and strangling two 15-year-olds, Lynda Mann and Dawn Ashworth, in 1983 and 1986
Double child killer and rapist Colin Pitchfork can be released from prison subject to conditions, the Parole Board has said.
It said in its decision: “The prisoner had committed shocking, serious offences, causing immeasurable harm to his victims. However, the Parole Board’s role, as required by law, is to undertake a risk assessment. “Accordingly, the panel determined that it was no longer necessary for the protection of the public for Mr Pitchfork to remain confined and thereby directed his release.”
