Triple killer will die in prison

By John Hirst (all)

Triple killer will die in prison

"A convicted killer who murdered the parents and brother of a bride hours after her wedding will die in prison after a judge rejected his appeal bid.

Arthur Hutchinson was given a life sentence for stabbing to death Basil Laitner, wife Avril and son Richard at their home in Dore, Sheffield.

Reviewing the case a High Court judge ruled the 66-year-old must remain in prison for life for his 1984 crimes.

He is one a small number of UK killers with a "life means life" tariff".

I cannot help wondering if all of this is not just simply reintroducing capital punishment via the back door?
