March 20, 2006 Killing While Subject to Supervision
It was revealed today that four members of the the six man gang
which kidnapped, raped, tortured and murdered 16-year-old Mary-Ann Leneghan in
Reading were subject to probation supervision in London at the time of the
murder. The news, which was revealed at the close of the men's trial at Reading
Crown Court, comes soon after the
publication of the report into the
murder of John Monckton by
HM Inspectorate
of Probation. It will inevitably increase the pressure
on the
Probation
Service, and Home Secretary
Charles Clarke has already expressed his deep
concerns over the assessment and risk management of offenders in the community.
