The man who killed the mother of reality star Chanelle Hayes will stay behind bars after the Parole Board decided he should not be released. Keith Pollard’s request to be moved to an open prison was also rejected.
Pollard, now 68, was jailed for life in 1998 over the murder of Andrea Sinclair. She was reportedly working as a prostitute when she was strangled and mutilated by Pollard, who was a client, in his Manchester flat when her daughter Chanelle was a baby.
Chanelle, who became well known by appearing on the Channel 4 reality series Big Brother in 2007, has previously spoken out about her mother’s murder and her fears that Pollard could be freed.
