Ahead of likely release of one of the killers ‘TERRIFIED I’LL MEET MUM’S KILLER AFTER HIS RELEASE’
murder, this was so horrific and beyond anything imaginable.
“My mother got into the car, at some point an argument broke out, she was strangled from behind while her hands were held down. She managed to break a window and she was taken to an alley and beaten for hours.
“There was not a bone unbroken, hit with a car lock, her hair was gone, a footprint embedded into her torso so much so the wire from her bra was embedded also. It was so severe there was no way of knowing cause of death.
“Although they did know she was alive when they took her from the car, my mum was a fighter and they kept going on going because I know she would never have given up and to this day that breaks me.
“To want to know what her last thought was or if she was asking for help and I couldn’t be there or save her and that I never get to tell her how she was the most best mum in the world.”
Christopher Jones received a 13-year sentence while his brother Stuart was ordered to serve at least 15 years in prison.
Now Christopher Jones is set to have a parole hearing on February 6, where he is likely to be let out. But Stephanie won’t be told where he will go if he is released.
She is terrified about what could happen if he is released.
And it’s the fear of not knowing his whereabouts that frightens her the most. “Just because he’s been in there for 13 years, he’s had it really easy,” she said. “Prisons are like hostels nowadays.
“He’s got qualifications in there. They’ve already allowed him home visits, he’s already got a job and on day release. “He’s coming out to start again. “But it was so brutal and horrific, there’s no way he’s changed.
“To do that in the beginning you have to be evil.
“My biggest fear is bumping into him or nothing to stop him doing something.”
Stephanie was so angry about the situation that she posted on social media. The Facebook post has been shared hundreds of times, with nearly 400 likes and over 150 comments of support.
But it has come at a cost – Stephanie has been told she has now put Christopher Jones’ life in danger – so she won’t be given any more information about him or Stuart.
“I didn’t feel they kept us in the loop very much,” she said.
“Because I put that post up, the victim liaison officer said they’re not allowed to give me any info about my mum anymore.
“The thing that affects me is that we’re not allowed to even know which county he’s going to.
“He could even be coming back to Cardiff. They’re saying it’s going to be hard to keep him out of the whole of Cardiff. But he knows where we live. I don’t understand why we can’t be told where he is.”
The Parole Board said: “We can confirm that Christopher Jones is currently undergoing a parole review and this is following normal processes. He is due to have an oral hearing in February 2018.
“We are unable to comment further on the individual details of this case.”
