## Key points

- Tracey Connelly is seeking release again.
- She was recalled to prison in August 2024.
- The Parole Board is assessing whether she has changed.

## Summary

Tracey Connelly, the mother of Baby P, is again seeking release from prison, with the Parole Board considering whether she can safely be freed. Her case matters because Peter’s death became emblematic of serious failures in child protection, and Connelly has twice been recalled to prison after earlier releases.

Connelly was sentenced in 2009 to an open-ended Imprisonment for Public Protection order, with a five-year minimum term. She was most recently returned to prison in August 2024 after breaching her licence; at her latest parole hearing, she reportedly acknowledged her past failings and said she would avoid children if released. A prison insider quoted in the article questioned whether her apparent insight reflected genuine change.
