Some crimes are so vile that those who commit them deserve a very long stretch behind bars.
Such a crime led to the heartbreaking death of Baby P. And such a criminal was his vile mother Tracey Connelly, one of three people involved in the little boy’s tragic end.
Connelly was allowed out on licence once, but she misbehaved and was returned to jail. The Parole Board ruled she should be let out again, to public outrage.
