Double Murderer Andrew McVicar Released on Parole: Outrage from Victims Families

Andrew McVicar, a double murderer, was released on parole after serving just over seven years of a twelve-year minimum sentence for his second killing. He first murdered a twenty-year-old stranger in 1999 and later killed a fifty-seven-year-old pensioner during a robbery in Essex. McVicar had been previously released on his first life sentence before committing the second crime. His latest release has sparked outrage from the family of his first victim, with Julie Sinfield, whose son died from the bottle attack, calling it disgusting and shocking. McVicar was arrested after fleeing back to his hometown in Lanarkshire with stolen cash and over twenty-two thousand dollars in his possession. The independent Parole Board approved his release following a risk assessment, and he will face lifelong supervision.
