PM urges justice secretary on PC Harper killers
Jessie Cole and Albert Bowers, who were sentenced to 13 years for manslaughter in connection with the death of PC Andrew Harper, are scheduled to be released in January under an early release scheme. The UK government is considering measures to increase prison capacity and exclude certain offenders, including Harper’s killers, from early release to address public concern. Prime Minister Andy Burnham is working with the justice secretary to find ways to reduce early releases of serious offenders, including options like expediting foreign offender deportations and utilizing the entire prison estate.
