A dozen convicted murderers who were freed early from jail have gone on to kill again in the past decade, MailOnline can reveal today.

They served as little as eight years in prison for their first murder before being let out to do it again, sometimes within weeks of leaving custody.

One shocking case involved steroid-addict bodybuilder Douglas Gary Vinter, who was released after nine years before carrying out a carbon-copy killing on his estranged wife.

Twice convicted: Douglas Gary Vinter served less than ten years for murder before killing again, this time his wife Anne White in 2008

In 2008 he was finally given a whole life term for knifing to death Anne White, 40, having previously done the same to a former workmate years earlier.

After kidnapping her and holding her hostage at his mother's house they found Ms White's body in the kitchen.

She had been strangled and stabbed four times with two knives, one of which had broken in the attack.

Vinter, who measures a giant 6ft 7in, had used anabolic steroids and had been drinking and taking cocaine, told police: 'I've got my reasons why I did it.'

At the time he was on licence after serving less than a decade in prison for the murder of Carl Edon, 22, who he stabbed to death in a railway workers' cabin.

In an equally shocking case double murderer and bungling hitman Paul Glen stabbed and killed the wrong man for £300.

In 2004 Glen had been paid to intimidate a man by a businessman but he murdered the wrong person, Robert Bogle, who shared a house with the intended target.

Mr Bogle and his girlfriend were cooking dinner when Glen kicked the door down and stabbed him all over his upper body, including in his heart.

Glen had not asked the name of the person he was to intimidate, who was called Vincent Smart, who was out. It later emerged that Mr Smart was white, whereas Mr Bogle was black.

The victim crawled into the street to get help but later died.

Families of those whose loved-ones have been murdered today said 'life must always mean life'.

'These are people who should be alive now', said Rose Dixon of group Support after Murder and Manslaughter (SAMM).

'Many of our members say that that they have great concerns that the offender that killed their loved-one will kill again.  It is horrifying how many do.

'Most believe that they should serve life or a sufficiently long time that they are unable to offend again.

'The majority of families of victims suffer far longer than the person that killed them'.

Conservative MP Philip Davies, who helped uncover the figures, said: 'Murderers sent to prison for life should spend the rest of their life in prison

It's an absolute outrage that people convicted of murder are released from prison to go on and commit another murder.

'I think that any government that presides over that system should be absolutely ashamed of themselves.'

All the killers were considered ready for freedom by parole boards, but then murdered again, often in similar ways to their first homicide.

David Cameron is known to back 'whole life' terms for murderers, but Eurocrats fight them in Strasbourg because they believe they breach the offenders' human rights and are 'inhumane'.

Justice Minister Jeremy Wright said: 'Reoffending has been too high for too long and we are introducing significant reforms to the way offenders are rehabilitated and managed in the community.

'From 2015 all prisoners will for the first time receive a minimum 12 months' supervision on release and GPS satellite tags will also allow us to keep a much closer eye on them.

'Our changes will see the best of the voluntary, public and private sector working together to cut reoffending.'

It came as it was revealed that one in seven murders in Britain is committed by suspects freed on bail while awaiting trial for other crimes.

Last year 56 murders – more than one a week and a shocking 37 per cent rise on 2011 – were carried out by people bailed by the courts.

Official figures show that 12 killers murdered again in the past decade:
Shotgun killer who gunned down man 38 years after his first murder
Sorry story: Pensioner killer Ernest gunned a man down 38 years after his first murder

Career criminal: Pensioner killer Ernest gunned a man down 38 years after his first murder

In 2010 pensioner Ernest Wright was told he would spend the rest of his life behind bars after carrying out a shotgun execution 38 years after murdering another man

The 70-year-old had served 26 years in prison for a 1971 killing when he was freed on life licence in 1999.

Despite his release he continued to mix in criminal circles and carried out several night-time burglaries, police said.

Then, in March three years ago, he gunned down Neville Corby, 42, after bursting into his home in Bradford, West Yorkshire.

Wearing a balaclava he twice reloaded his shotgun as he fired six shots at Mr Corby and his intended target, Craig Freear, 31, whom he had a long-standing feud with.

He was jailed in 1973 after beating Trevor Hale to death with an iron bar in Aylesbury, then trying to burn his body in a shallow grave.

One relative, who did not want to be named, said: 'We were never going to be happy with the outcome of the trial.

'This should never have happened. There is no justice for our family today and there never will be.

'The British government, the Home Office and so called criminal justice system have a lot to answer for.

'We have to come to to terms with that for the rest of our lives, it should never have been allowed to happen.'
Double killer was jailed again after carbon copy of first murder

Maria Stubbings, 50, was killed by convicted murderer Marc Chivers at her home in Chelmsford, Essex, in December 2008.

Chivers had been freed from a German prison less than a year earlier, after serving 15 years for murdering his then girlfriend Sabine Rappold. He was jailed for life in 2009 for Ms Stubbings' murder.

Ms Stubbings was strangled with a dog lead and dumped under coats in the toilet of her house, but police were 'fobbed off' by her killer, who said she was away, even though her car was in the drive.

It later emerged she was throttled to death despite her having contacted police several times about the dangerous killer because he was physically abusing her.

Chivers was had been deported from Germany after 15 years in jail.

In 1992 he strangled Miss Rappold with a rope and buried her in a shallow grave.

But a loophole in the law meant probation officers here were never told how dangerous he was.

Eleven months later he killed a mother-of-two who had befriended him.
Welsh strangler who murdered just 100 miles from his first killing

Pensioner David Cook, 65, of Rhymney, South Wales, beat neighbour Leonard Hill, 64, senseless before throttling him with a TV flex in 2011.

Cook carried out the violent killing when next-door neighbour Mr Hill paid him a visit.

Afterwards Cook ransacked his neighbour’s bungalow, stealing his wallet before going to a nearby pub for a drink with locals.

The murder was chillingly similar to the strangulation of Sunday school teacher Beryl Maynard, which he did in 1987.

Cook then used a dressing gown cord and 'strangled her and killed her', his trial heard.

Mrs Maynard was a Good Samaritan who befriended him while he was in prison. But he then robbed and killed her at her home.

And then more than 20 years later, he befriended new neighbour Mr Hill - before robbing and killing him in a similar way.

Freed to kill again: Convicted murderer Andrew Dawson called himself the 'Angel of Mercy' and butchered two neighbours after serving life sentence for a 1981 killing

Freed to kill again: Convicted murderer Andrew Dawson called himself the 'Angel of Mercy' and butchered two neighbours after serving life sentence for a 1981 killing

Convicted murderer Andrew Dawson branded himself the 'Angel of Mercy' after a series of murders.

He was given a life sentence in 1982 after admitting the murder of a 91-year-old Henry Walsh in his flat at Ormskirk, Lancashire, stabbing him a dozen times with bread knife.

Within weeks of his release in 2010, he stabbed defenceless John Matthews and Paul Hancock to death in separate attacks.

He then left their bodies in their bathtubs in Derby.

The 51-year-old told police he felt an 'urge to kill' before knocking on the men's doors in the block of flats, where he also lived, and hacked them to death.

Dawson then wrote a rambling note to police confessing to one of the killings.

It was signed: 'Yours, the Angel of Mercy'.

His own brother Malcolm said: 'My brother was clever and hoodwinked those in charge that he was no threat. But he was evil.

'If you kill you should be locked up forever, no question.

'My brother never apologised for what he did — he was just sorry he got caught'.

Killed and fled: David Baxendale was stabbed and killed a man in Spain before killing a woman in Surrey in the same way

Knife-obsessed killer David Baxendale stabbed to death a mother-of-three before fleeing to Spain in 2011 - the country where he carried out his first murder.

He carried out a 'ferocious attack' on Sarah Thomas, 38, at her home in Surrey before catching a ferry out of Britain.

Her boyfriend, who became worried for her safety, arrived at the flat and found her lying in a pool of blood.

Baxendale had been drinking all day before the murder and was seen running from the crime scene and eventually caught a taxi to his mother's home.

The next day he got to Portsmouth, where he shaved his head in a public toilet.

Using his brother's passport he took a one-way ticket to St Malo in France and slowly made his way to Marbella in Spain.

But he was recognised in a bar and arrested.

It later emerged that in 2001 he was jailed in Spain for murdering a man by stabbing him 14 times while drunk and high on drugs.

After eight years in prison he was deported to Britain, where he was allowed out on licence.

Error: Bungling contract killer Paul Glen who stabbed the wrong man to death, Robert Bogle, right, as he cooked dinner with his girlfriend

In 2004 he travelled from Liverpool to Mr Smart's home in Farcet, Cambridgeshire, armed with a knife.

But, by mistake, he stabbed and killed Robert Bogle, who shared a house with Mr Smart.

Mr Bogle and his girlfriend were cooking dinner together when Glen kicked the door down and stabbed in the hands and arms, and once through the chest and into his heart.

His terrified girlfriend was behind the sofa.

Glen had not asked the name of the person he was to intimidate, who was called Vincent Smart, who was out.

It later emerged that Mr Smart was white, whereas Mr Bogle was black.

Glen went on the run to Blackpool but was arrested two months later.

In February 1989, when he was 17, he murdered hotelier Ivor Usher using a kitchen knife, wrench, and some rope.

Glen was sentenced to life, but served just 13 years, and was released in 2002.
Strangler murdered sex offender a dumped his body in mirror-image killing

Royston Jackson, 43, was convicted of murdering sex offender Gordon Boon, 73 in 2010.

Turkey catcher Jackson strangled and killed Boon, a convicted sex offender, after the pair met at a probation hostel in Norwich.

He murdered him then dumped his body in a country lane two years after being released from prison for the first murder.

A walking couple found Boon's naked body in October 2008, dumped in near the Bernard Matthews headquarters in Norfolk. 

The pensioner had been to prison for sex offences against a girl of 13 and one aged eight and at first police thought it was a vigilante killing until they linked the pair.

Jackson had murdered teenager Stephen Raven in Essex in 1989.

Stephen Raven's clothing had been interfered with because although he was wearing clothes, they had clearly been taken off prior to his killing because his underpants had been put on inside out and back to front.

Both of Jackson's victims had been strangled and disposed of the same way and had a 'segxwal overtone'.
Drug addict killer murdered gay man for £3 before turning on 89-year-old after release
Cold blooded: George Johnson battered to death an 89-year-old widow after being released from jail after a sadistic murder in 1986

George Johnson murdered Gerald Homer in 1986 for just £3, forcing him to strip naked before hacking him to death, inflicting 35 wounds using knives and scissors in Wolverhampton.

He was freed in 2006 and five years later he battered to death 89-year-old widow Florence Habesch for £25 as she made a cup of tea. His attack was delivered with such force he caved in her skull.

Johnson, from Rhyl, went to the elderly woman's house in order to steal money for his heroin and crack cocaine habit.

He knew Mrs Habesch as his partner worked for Avon and Mrs Habesch was one of her customers. Johnson would sometimes make deliveries to her home.

He befriended the pensioner and did some odd jobs around her house for which he was paid.

On February 6 this year Johnson, desperate to pay off a drug debt, went to Mrs Habesch's home where he was invited in.

While she was in the kitchen making tea, he struck her on the head with a heavy projector case, knocking her to the floor. Mrs Habesch was staring at him and making gurgling noises so he hit her again with the case, he told police.

He went upstairs and stole £25 and two items of jewellery.

At the time he murdered Mrs Hasbech, Johnson had been released following a murder back in 1986.

When he was 22, Johnson had befriended a homosegxwal man with the intent of stealing from him.

He went to the victim's flat where they launched a ‘sustained and savage attack’ with knives and a pair of scissors which lasted an hour. He got 17 years in prison.

Mr Pratt's naked and decomposed body was found dumped on Scammonden Moor by a jogger 10 days later.

Lee killed him while out on licence, having spent nearly 14 years in jail for the murder of Bradford woman Shirley Carr in 1989.

Bodybuilder Douglas Gary Vinter served less than ten years for murder before killing again in a similar way to the first homicide.

He was finally given a whole life sentence for stabbing his wife to death in 2008 - after being released from a life sentence for the murder of a workmate.

He knifed his wife Anne, 40, to death after kidnapping her and holding her hostage at his mother's house.

At the time, Vinter was on licence after serving a decade in prison for the murder of Carl Edon, 22, who he stabbed to death in a railway workers' cabin.

His family were furious that Vinter was set free to kill again.

Teesside Crown Court was told how Vinter, 38, moved in with mother-of-four Anne White shortly after leaving prison in August 2005.

Mr Edon's mother, Val, said she was angry her son's killer had been freed so soon.

She said: I am very, very bitter.

'I feel so so sorry for Anne White's family. If he hadn't come out of prison, then her children would still have a mother. Somebody wouldn't listen.'
