Carole Packman murder: Appeal against killer's release rejected
"
A murderer who refuses to reveal the whereabouts of his wife's body will be freed from prison despite a last-ditch appeal to keep him behind bars.
The justice secretary had asked the Parole Board to reconsider its decision to release Russell Causley, who killed Carole Packman in Bournemouth in 1985.
Mrs Packman's family argued that he posed an ongoing risk to their safety."

Carole Packman's murder was the focus of MWT's attention in "The Investigator". I remember seeing at least one of his programmes about the case and having the impression that when he wrote to Russell Causley in jail, Causley was "playing" him and that MWT's efforts were basically just pouring salt in the family's wounds to no effect.
