Notorious Yorkshire killer who murdered woman, 22, he'd never met at petrol station is back on streets

The murderer who brutally killed a young police worker in a shocking hammer attack has been back on the streets, it has been revealed.

Thug Craig Belcher has been spending time in the community, walking the streets on day release. But at a hearing last month, parole officers refused the notorious killer a full release due to concerns with his behaviour, instead ordering him to remain at an open prison.

Humberside Police civilian worker Kirsty Carver was murdered in a horrific hammer attack at a petrol station in Willerby, East Yorkshire. Belcher was jailed for 18 years in 1999 - 25 years ago this weekend, reports HullLive.
