Notorious hit-and-run killer Thomas Towle will be released from prison in two weeks after serving just seven years of his 10-year sentence.
Nine News reports Towle is expected to be granted parole in May 16, less than a year after he was jailed again for breaching the terms of his 2013 parole. By the time he is released this time, he will have served just seven years.
Towle was under the influence of drugs and alcohol when he ploughed his car through a group of young people near Mildura in 2006, killing six people.
He then fled the scene of the crash.
His latest parole plans have further angered the families of the victims, who says it’s an insult to the memories of their loved ones.
“When is the justice system actually going to work in favour of the victims’ families?” the uncle of two victims, Richard Prowse, told Nine News.
“I think it’s an insult.”
