Virginia’s parole board applauded a killer. Show us the file

Published



In 1998, Troy Demar stabbed Christine Allen to death in the Fairfax County home they shared. Her daughter was 3 months old. A judge sent him away for 40 years. This month, 7News reported that Virginia’s Parole Board let him out. One board member said this on the record: “You have done so much; you’ve actually done more programming than most inmates.”

Allen’s sister had testified. “He killed my sister. My life will never be the same.”
