he convicted rapist dubbed the Beast of Blenheim will be subject to a 10-year extended supervision order once his parole conditions end after release from prison, a judge has decided. Stewart Murray Wilson, who was jailed for 21 years in 1996 for sexual offending against women and girls, is due to be released from prison on September 1. The 65-year-old, who was sentenced before preventive detention laws were introduced, must be released despite being assessed as being at a high risk of reoffending.
