'Sadistic' killer can address public parole board privately
Daily Express
|July 17, 2024
A MURDERER who stabbed a woman 60 times during sex will give evidence at his public parole hearing in private, the panel chair has said.
Steven Ling, a farm worker, was jailed for life in December 1998 after admitting murdering Joanne Tulip, 29, in Stamfordham, Northumberland, on Christmas Day a year earlier. A charge of rape was left on file.
During sentencing at Newcastle Crown Court, Mr Justice Potts told Ling: "You inflicted appalling injuries on Ms Tulip while you were having sexual relations with her.
"I'm also satisfied there was in your motivation an aspiration of sadism."
He added: "You will never be released so long as it is thought you constitute a danger to women."
