A dozen convicted murderers who were
freed early from jail have gone on to kill again in the past decade,
MailOnline can reveal today.
They served as little as eight years in prison for their first murder before being let out to do it again, sometimes within weeks of leaving custody.
One shocking case involved steroid-addict bodybuilder Douglas Gary Vinter, who was released after nine years before carrying out a carbon-copy killing on his estranged wife.
In
2008 he was finally given a whole life term for knifing to death Anne
White, 40, having previously done the same to a former workmate years
earlier.
After kidnapping her and holding her hostage at his mother's house they found Ms White's body in the kitchen.
She had been strangled and stabbed four times with two knives, one of which had broken in the attack.
