The murderer of John Lennon will remain in jail – Qué.es

An American court for the eighth time denied parole the man who shot and killed John Lennon, Mark David Chapman , considering that his release would be “incompatible with the welfare of the society. “

Chapman, 59 years old, serving a 20 years in prison for killing four shots with the musician John Lennon when he left his apartment in New York, a crime for which the courts have refused eight times parole.

This time, the court reminded the condemned that “stalked and waited” Lennon to shoot “multiple times.” “The victim had been kind to you earlier in the day and their actions have devastated his family,” he stated, as reported by Time magazine.

Chapman, who murdered in 1980 to Lennon when he was 25 years old, may reapply for review of his conviction in 2016. In the past he has been denied for reasons of safety, both for the rest of citizens for himself.
