Michelle’s Law: Family of murdered teenager condemn killer’s parole

The family was notified on 15 January that the Parole Board for Scotland (PBS) was satisfied Wilson was no longer a risk to public safety.

When he was sentenced, Wilson was told he would be in prison for at least 12 years before he was eligible for parole, and has now served four years longer than that.

In a letter, the board said he would be on license for the remainder of his life, under the supervision of the local authority they live in, and could be recalled to prison at any time if he breached the parole conditions.

The board said it could not comment on individual cases but each case was assessed on its own merits.

A spokesperson said: “The conditions are designed in each case to assist with the management of risk.

“The management of an offender in the community is a matter for their local authority supervising officer who can, if there are good grounds for doing so, request a change to licence conditions at any point during the course of the licence period.”
