when life for murder means 14 years … the criminal system at work

ok guys , here’s the plan.

We cut the guys throat and toss him in some lane somewhere.  Oh wait, hang on.  We also need to make certain he’s dead, so lets stab him 37 times. Right. That should do it. Then after our trial where we’re given life for murder, we get to spend £5G of taxpayer money for plastic surgery.  Later on, we get to go on shopping trips outside prison and meet with pals and have a gay old time.
AND … in 14 years we’re FREE.  Free. Free at last. 

Hey ... is this a wonderful system if ur a killer ,er what?

Road rage murderer Tracie Andrews ‘let out of jail for eight-hour shopping spree’

Day trip: Tracie Andrews, pictured in 1997, has been let out of prison for a shopping trip

One of Britain’s most notorious female murderers has been let out of prison for a shopping spree, it has been revealed.

Tracie Andrews, who is serving a life sentence after stabbing boyfriend Lee Harvey to death and claiming he was the victim of a road rage attack, enjoyed a leisurely eight-hour day out, stopping for lunch and buying clothes.

The day trips come ahead of Andrews’ planned release next year and have angered Mr Harvey’s mother Maureen.

Wearing sunglasses and carrying a designer handbag, Andrews caught the bus to York on Saturday after being released from Askham Grange open prison, the Sun reported.

Once in town she met up with a friend for coffee before strolling through the shops to pick up some DVDs, clothes, sportswear and beauty products.

The friends stopped for lunch at a local Nando’s restaurant before continuing to peruse the stores.

Andrews appeared to be enjoying herself and was seen frequently chatting on her mobile.

She is being allowed on days out to prepare for her full release next year after serving 15 years of a life sentence for murdering her boyfriend.

Maureen Harvey, 62, told The Sun: ‘To be honest, it’s very upsetting and traumatic.’

A prison source said: ‘Tracie is one of Britain’s most notorious killers and people will be alarmed to know that she’s out on shopping trips.

‘Crime victims will be disgusted to see such leniency.’

Mr Harvey, 25, bled to death in a country lane in December 1996.

Andrews concocted a story that he had been murdered by a wild-eyed maniac, but it was she who cut her fiance’s throat and stabbed him 37 times.

The murderer, 40 - who has had a string of lesbian affairs behind bars and now calls herself Tia Carter - was back in the headlines last year when it was revealed that she underwent a £5,000 plastic surgery operation at the taxpayers’ expense.

She was admitted to Royal Surrey Hospital in Guildford for four days to undergo surgery to realign her jaw.

She was jailed for life, with a recommendation that she should serve at least 14 years.

Not that very many people ever read this far down, but this blog was the creation of Allan Kelly and his friend Vilmar. Vilmar moved on to his own blog some time ago, and Allan ran this place alone until his sudden and unexpected death partway through 2006. We all miss him. A lot. Even though he is gone this site will always still be more than a little bit his. We who are left to carry on the BMEWS tradition owe him a great debt of gratitude, and we hope to be able to pay that back by following his last advice to us all:

1. Keep a firm grasp of Right and Wrong
2. Stay involved with government on every level and don't let those bastards get away with a thing
3. Use every legal means to defend yourself in the event of real internal trouble, and, most importantly:
4. Keep talking to each other, whether here or elsewhere

It's been a long strange trip without you Skipper, but thanks for pointing us in the right direction and giving us a swift kick in the behind to get us going. Keep lookin' down on us, will ya? Thanks.
