The British Airways Killer: Family Terrified at the Potential Release of Joanna's Killer

  • Joanna Simpson was killed in 2010 by her husband, pilot Robert Brown. Their two children were in the next room when he bludgeoned her to death and then buried her in a pre-dug grave. He was found guilty of manslaughter and sentenced to 26 years in prison.
    The former pilot recently brought a High Court challenge against the government which moved to block his automatic release from prison. He claims that 'political motivation' amid a media campaign against his release improperly contributed to a decision to refer his case to the Parole Board. He has served 13 years and was due for parole last year but last October Justice Secretary Alex Chalk used new powers to have Brown's case reviewed by the Parole Board rather than allow his release on licence at the halfway point of his sentence.
    Di is now waiting for the decision of the appeal - which could see her daughter’s killer freed.

    I had counselling from a very experienced (decades) very qualified therapist. 3 different degrees. Had a radio programme. Due to how I was brought up I am susceptible to being controlled by fully narcissistic people . The therapist said to me “anyone, literally anyone can be conned, even me” . Fully narcissistic people cannot be rehabilitated. The narcissism controls them and will not allow it.

    I'm so puzzled by law in England. Any murderer needs to be at least serving a 50-year sentence.
    The fact that this murderer is serving only half the sentence because the law was changed after his conviction beggars belief.
    I can't understand why an appeal wasn't made for a retrial of his 'man slaughter' conviction.
    The lady doesn't look anything close to 85 years old, and I hope she has good security for her safety. Her life, like her daughter's, is too precious to end by the hand of another.

      It doesn't mean they'll be released.
      They have to behave and prove thst they're rehabilitated.

    I don’t understand why the parole people aren’t schooled in narcissism and how this one behaviour that we all have can be so far gone in some humans that it then drives their whole life. There is almost no habilitation from that curse. People have to go to the “shame” they carry and it would be so painful most people don’t (even if they are aware there is something wrong). It takes years of hard work to change behaviours. The narcissism will drive him to be exactly what the parole people want to see. They ( people with high narcissism) have years of experience on how to have convincing facades.

How does one measure coercive behaviour and does one create a law, just in case the aggressor was perhaps a little over animated at a particular point?
