The twisted child killer who tortured her son to death 18 years ago and has previously been released from behind bars twice has made yet another bid for freedom
Baby P’s sick mum is making another bid for freedom after being thrown back behind bars years after being locked back up for selling naked snaps of herself.
Tracey Connelly, now 43, is the evil mum who tortured her son to death 18 years ago sparking outcries across the country in one of the most well-known child abuse cases we’ve ever seen. Now there are fears the sicko will walk free again having already been released twice previously.
She keeps finding herself back behind bars for breaching the conditions of her release but, granted a new parole hearing, she may soon be out walking our streets once again.
The monster from Tottenham, North London, found herself locked up once again in September, 15 years after being jailed at the Old Bailey over the death of her son Peter. The baby, just 17 months old, had suffered months of horrific abuse at the hands of Connelly and two men.
He suffered 50 horrific injuries at his home including a broken back, a fractured shin bone, a ripped ear, a missing fingernail and a tooth knocked out to name just some.
Connelly was initially released in 2013 but was recalled just 18 months on for selling nude snaps online in 2015. Connelly made three further parole bids in 2015, 2017 and 2019 but all were rejected before a final, successful bid in 2022 found she posed a low risk of re-offending.
She’s now back behind bars as of late last year following a further breach, of which details were not disclosed.
Former Met Police Detective Peter Bleksley has asked: “How many more chances does this woman need?” reports the Sun. He said: “Whatever happened to three strikes and you’re out.
“This is another example of the fluffy and liberal thinking that plagues most of the criminal justice system including the Parole Board, who seem hell-bent on bending over backwards to let people out rather than keep them in.”
Also jailed over Peter’s death was stepdad Steven Barker and Barker’s brother, Jason Owen. The trio subjected him to eight months of abuse and suffering before his death in 2007.
It comes after a girl of four was left burnt and disfigured after a being subject to a year of torture at the hands of a woman, it is alleged.
The youngster is said to have assaulted, neglected and abused over a period of 10 months in a case one detective said was “the worst she’d seen in her career”. Read the full story here.
