One of Garry Newlove's killers will find out in a matter of days if he will move to an open prison.
Garry was killed in 2007 after being attacked by a group of drunk thugs who he reprimanded for vandalising cars outside his Warrington home. The gang's 'ringleader' Adam Swellings is the only one of the killers to remain in prison.
At the time of the attack, Swellings was 19 and had been freed on bail just hours earlier over an assault. He also ignored a court order banning him from Warrington.
