Snippet:
A number of the papers are focusing on a review of the early prison release programme, after the family of a policeman killed in 2019 expressed outrage that two of the three men jailed for his death could be released after serving only half of their sentence. The headline of the Guardian gives an apt summary: "Burnham steps in to order review in row over early prison release".
