James Bulger's killer Jon Venables is to 'fight' a Parole Board decision to keep him behind bars, as he laments a 'miscarriage of justice'.<\/p>\n

Venables, who murdered two-year-old James Bulger in 1993 when he was just 10-years-old, will now spend at least two more years behind bars as a result of a decision made last week (Wednesday, December 13). Parole chiefs determined Venables, now 41, is still a danger to society. <\/p>\n

The Sun reported that the evil killer "was ranting and raving and promising to appeal" after the decision. The publication quoted a source as saying that Venables reckons "he was the victim of a miscarriage of justice."<\/p>\n

"He does have the right to appeal, and knows as well as anyone how to exploit his rights," the source added.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

"Given his background, most sane people would agree with the [Parole Board] decision."<\/p>\n

Venables has 21 days to lodge an appeal, meaning the victim's family can't fully relax over Christmas, despite the likelihood of a release being low.<\/p>\n

Speaking on TalkTV, he said: \u201cI\u2019m glad he\u2019s being kept in. The public\u2019s a bit more safe for two years. It\u2019s a bit of a result.<\/p>\n
