Family Seeks Justice
Justice Secretary Alex Chalk has pledged to do everything within his power to keep Robert Brown, convicted of killing Joanna Simpson, behind bars. Brown was acquitted of murder but admitted manslaughter on the grounds of diminished responsibility.
Commitment to Public Safety
Mr. Chalk expressed his commitment to keeping the public safe, stating, "I will do everything I can within the law to keep people safe and to ensure there is justice in this case."
A Release Date Approaches
British Airways pilot Brown is due to be released on licence in November after serving 13 years of a 26-year sentence. Not facing a Parole Board, concerns arise about his potential danger to the public.
Fighting for Victims
Joanna Simpson's friend, Hetti Barkworth-Nanton, said, "The only way to truly keep the public safe is to make sure that Robert Brown remains behind bars." Joanna's mother, Diana Parkes, emphasized the need for urgent action to prevent Brown's release, hoping that "common sense will prevail."
