In a troubling update, a key figure involved in a gruesome crime has recently been released from prison.
Jessica Lynas, who was part of the gang responsible for the brutal death of Gemma Hayter, has been freed from jail.
The Brutal Crime
Gemma Hayter, a 27-year-old woman with learning disabilities, met a horrific fate at the hands of the gang.
The gang had initially befriended her before subjecting her to an unimaginable ordeal.
Gemma was viciously beaten, forced to drink urine, stripped naked, and left to die at a disused railway line.
Her lifeless body, marked by 55 injuries, was discovered by a jogger in Rugby, Warwickshire, in 2010.
The judge described the gang’s actions as a “chronicle of heartlessness.”
Jessica Lynas’s Role and Release
Jessica Lynas was sentenced to 13 years for manslaughter after her involvement in Gemma’s death.
Despite her sentence, Lynas posted a deceptive message on Facebook to mislead people about the incident, showing a blatant disregard for the gravity of the crime.
The message read: “Wants 2 knw wat happened on hilly road.. is it true they found a body?”
Recently, MailOnline reported that Lynas has been released from prison.
Other Gang Members’ Sentences
The other gang members involved in this tragic case received severe sentences.
Chantelle Booth, 22, her boyfriend Daniel Newstead, 20, and Joe Boyer, 18, were each given life sentences for murder.
Duncan Edwards, 19, was sentenced to 15 years for manslaughter. Boyer, who was particularly cruel, urinated in a can and forced Gemma to drink it.
He is scheduled for a Parole Board hearing in October, where a decision could be made about his release or transfer to open conditions.
Public Outrage and Case Review
The case has sparked significant public outrage, with many finding it shocking that Lynas has been freed.
A review into the case revealed that Lynas had previously been accused of attacking another girl.
There were also failures by social services to support Gemma, who had repeatedly sought help but was turned away.
Looking Forward
The release of Lynas has left many people disgusted and dismayed.
A source commented, “It’s shocking that Lynas has been freed.
This was a crime which shocked the nation and was cruel beyond belief.
She will be free to get on with her life now having taken Gemma’s.
She even tried to cover her tracks with the Facebook post.”
The case continues to highlight the need for justice and accountability, and the public will be watching closely as the remaining gang members face their own legal battles.
