    A man imprisoned for more than 20 years will soon walk free

    A man imprisoned for more than 20 years will soon walk free


    At Timothy Taylor's ninth Parole Board hearing today it ruled he can be released to a community home in April

    He was jailed for life in 2000 over the murder of 20-year-old Lisa Blakie


    The Timaru woman was killed as she hitchhiked from Christchurch to Greymouth.

    Herald journalist Anna Leask says Taylor has always denied killing Blakie.

    Today was Taylor's ninth appearance before the parole board, who ruled he could be released to a community home in April.
