Summary
We have an urgent episode today about a case listeners particularly in the U.K. need to be aware. Serial Child Murderer and rapist Colin Pitchfork — who raped and murdered two 15 year old girls, Lynda Mann in 1983 and Dawn Ashworth in 1986 in Leicestershire - is about to be released from prison into the community unless Ministers take action. In our opinion as experts, we strongly believe that it's not possible for psychopath Colin Pitchfork to be rehabilitated and we explain why in this episode.
The Parole Board has shown a shocking lack of understanding of psychopaths (which Pitchfork has been diagnosed) in allowing this 63 year old man his freedom. Would you believe that he was granted parole in 2021 but had to be re-locked up because he had immediately violated the terms? Why is he getting another chance? Laura lays out the glaring red flags and her fears about what cunning strategies Pitchfork may be planning in order to offend again. Jim weighs in on the layers of psychopathy that Pitchfork appears to possess.
If you are in the U.K., please take action and write to the Lord Chancellor and Secretary State for Justice Alex Chalk at [email protected] and ask him to intervene and challenge the Parole Board’s decision for their flawed assessment. You can list the many reasons you have heard on today’s show.

| 0:24.5 | He can now be released from prison. Subject two conditions. This is according to the |
| 0:28.9 | parole board. There has been a great deal of public interest in whether or not he should |
| 0:34.2 | be released from prison. But the parole board have decided that despite raping and strangling |
| 0:39.2 | two 15-year-olds in the 80s, he may now be released from prison. |

| 1:23.6 | right, Lisa. And just to give a bit of background, this is the case, I'm calling it the case against |
| 1:30.0 | Colin Pitchfork because it's about looking at his history given the fact that it's been |
| 1:36.0 | determined by a parole board that he is safe in air quotes to be released. And many of our listeners |
| 1:43.9 | may not know this case. So you didn't know it. I knew parts of it. I didn't know all the detail |
| 1:50.8 | of it. But what I did know was that he was a double child murderer, serial rapist, stalker, |
