RELEASE OF GIRL FROM PRISON
Consideration On March 31 ? LONDON, February 15. The “Sunday Express” reported today that a member of its staff had interviewed the New Zealand Secretary of Justice (Mr S. T. Barnett) by radio-telephone and he had said that “the question of Juliet Hulme’s release comes up before the Executive Council on March 31.” Mr Barnett was out of-Welling-ton and unavailable for comment. [The Minister of Justice <Mr Mason) said: “The discharge, according to law, is at Her Majesty’s pleasure. It would be a matter for the Minister to advise on and the matter has not even been considered by the Minister.] Hulme and Pauline Parker were convicted in Christchurch four years and nine months ago of the murder of Parker's mother.
