Michael Keohan

New DNA samples will be taken from Michael Stone as the Criminal Cases Review Commission re-examines his convictions for the 1996 murders of Lin and Megan Russell. The review follows reports that serial killer Levi Bellfield confessed to the killings and renewed claims from Stone’s legal team that no DNA links him to key evidence. The CCRC is conducting extensive forensic and contextual analysis to determine whether there is a real possibility his conviction could be overturned, while local residents in Chillenden continue to reflect on the lasting impact of the murders.
