MoJ responds to claims Preston Davey's killer Jamie Varley stabbed at 'Monster Mansion' HMP Wakefield
Killer serving full life sentence following death of 13-month-old Preston Davey at the UK’s most notorious prison, HMP Wakefield - also known as ‘Monster Mansion’
The Ministry of Justice has responded to rumours that Preston Davey killer and paedophile Jamie Varley has been attacked and stabbed in prison.
Former South Shore Academy teacher Varley, 37, was earlier this month told he would die in prison for the sexual abuse and murder of 13-month-old baby Preston Davey. His now-ex boyfriend McGowan-Fazakerley was himself sentenced to 25 years for allowing the death of a child, child cruelty and sexual assault.
Varley has since been transferred to the UK’s most notorious prison, HMP Wakefield - also known as ‘Monster Mansion’ due to it housing the nation’s most infamous murderers and sex offenders.
The situation in which Varley now finds himself has led to an online rumours that the child-killer had been attacked and stabbed in recent days, with some online accounts claiming that he was in hospital and in a serious but stable condition.
The Ministry of Justice has today confirmed that these rumours are ‘definitely not true.’
A new report into conditions at Wakefield Prison, however, show that Varley will be in danger until the day he dies. He will spend his life locked up alongside the most violent men in the criminal justice system living in dirty cramped conditions, with much of the prison infrastructure crumbling to dust.
