'Positive reports and remorse' - how schoolgirl's torture gang killer talked his way out of jail
He played a depraved part in one of Manchester's most infamous murders. But now the Parole Board has decided Glyn Powell should be released from prison.
A decision summary by the Board's panel reveals that Powell has already spent time in the community working after being transferred to an open prison in May 2021. He was given a mandatory life sentence on December 17th 1993, with a minimum tariff of 25 years before he could be considered for release.
"The panel very carefully considered the detail and circumstances of the offences, relevant patterns of previous offending and all the other evidence before it. This enabled it to identify a number of risk factors - things that made it more likely that Mr Powell would offend - which had existed at the time of his offending.
"The panel was also told that although Mr Powell’s behaviour had been poor at the start of his sentence, it had significantly improved and had been of a high standard since 2017. The panel heard how as a result of progress made, Mr Powell had been awarded a transfer to an open prison in May 2021. "The plan included a requirement to reside in designated accommodation, as well as strict limitations on Mr Powell’s contacts, movements and activities. The panel concluded this plan was robust enough to manage him in the community."
"The Parole Board should not have released them. There needs to be a fundamental reassessment of the competence of the Parole Board." Now, Powell - the final one of her killers still in jail - is to be released. A spokesperson for the Parole Board said: “We can confirm that a panel of the Parole Board has directed the release of Glyn Powell following an oral hearing.
Suzanne, a pupil at Moston Brook High School, had spent time babysitting Jean Powell's three children at a terraced house in Langworthy Road and had stayed overnight. McNeilly lived in in the same house, with her own three children.
