“#UK serial killer Levi Bellfield offered COVID-19 vaccine<\/strong>”
\n<\/p>\n

\n

One of the UK\u2019s most notorious serial killers has been offered a COVID-19 jab before millions of Britain\u2019s elderly and most vulnerable \u2014 a move condemned as a \u201cnational scandal,\u201d according to a report.<\/p>\n

Levi Bellfield \u2014 who murdered three people, including 13-year-old Milly Dowler \u2014 received a letter offering him a vaccine in the coming weeks even as the program has only just been rolled out to those over 70,\u00a0The Sun said.<\/a><\/p>\n

David Spencer, of the Centre for Crime Prevention, called it \u201ca national scandal.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThe notion of criminals being prioritized over law-abiding citizens says everything about the way our criminal justice system is run at the moment,\u201d he told The Sun.<\/p>\n

Former Home Secretary David Blunkett said it defied belief \u201cthat prisoners, let alone a child murderer, should be given any opportunity for an early vaccine dose.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI hope the Justice Secretary will step in immedia<\/a>tely and find out why scarce vaccine doses are being deployed in this way \u2014 and whose idea it was.\u201d<\/p>\n

Bellfield, 52, is serving two whole-life terms, meaning he has to spend the rest of his life behind bars with the chance of parole.<\/p>\n

Most regular Britons remain under\u00a0strict lockdowns\u00a0in their homes because of the raging pandemic, with some care home residents among the millions of vulnerable still waiting for their shots.<\/p>\n

The killer got the offer in a letter sent to him in top-security Frankland Prison, Co Durham, where he reportedly moaned about not getting it sooner because the pandemic \u201ccan spread like wildfire,\u201d putting inmates \u201cin danger,\u201d The Sun said.<\/p>\n

It was not clear what other inmates got the same offer at the prison, which houses another notorious child murderer, Ian Huntley, as well as the terrorist who\u00a0beheaded soldier Lee Rigby\u00a0in the street, the UK paper said.<\/p>\n

The former cop who caught Bellfield \u2014 and whose memoirs are the basis of the\u00a0TV show \u201cManhunt\u201d\u00a0\u2014 called the offer of an early jab \u201capp<\/a>alling.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cPrison staff, police officers, teachers, shopworkers and delivery drivers \u2014 people who are keeping us going \u2014 should be prioritized,\u201d former Detective Chief Inspector Colin Sutton told the UK paper.<\/p>\n

After the outrage, a Ministry of Justice source insisted to The Sun that \u201cthere is no vaccine priority for prisoners, nor will there be.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cNo minister has seen this letter or thinks criminals should get better access to vaccines than the law-abiding majority,\u201d the source said.<\/p>\n

A spokesman for the ministry also insisted, \u201cTo suggest prisoners are being treated any differently to the general<\/a> public is complete nonsense.\u201d\n <\/p><\/div>\n
