Scissor Sister Charlotte Mulhall has been refused temporary release from jail for Christmas.
The Irish Mirror learned the 37-year-old requested temporary release from Limerick Prison where she is nearing the end of her life sentence for the murder of Farah Swaleh Noor in 2005. She had hoped to spend the festive period with family in Dublin after she was granted day release this year.
But her request for freedom for the festive season was turned down – as were many requests by life prisoners. This Christmas 129 inmates were granted temporary release, all but three of them already serving time in open facilities.
