Street killer appeals against conviction

1 comment

THE killer of Alan Street has decided to appeal the decision to convict him - as the family of his victim prepare to deal with what would have been his 27th birthday.

Peter Leonard, 52, of Trinity Street, Oswaldtwistle was told by Judge Anthony Russell QC in December last year that he must serve a minimum of 27 years and 66 days in prison, after he was unanimously found guilty of murder by a jury.
