UPDATE: Three men have been charged with murder following the shocking death of child killer Kyle Bevan in his prison cell at HMP Wakefield. West Yorkshire Police confirmed that Bevan, aged 33, was found dead on November 5, 2023, at approximately 8:25 AM. The circumstances surrounding his death are under investigation.
Authorities report that Mark Fellows (45), Lee Newell (56), and David Taylor (63), all inmates at the facility, have been remanded into custody and are scheduled to appear at Leeds Magistrates’ Court later today.
The tragic tale of Bevan, who was sentenced to life imprisonment in 2023 for the brutal murder of his partner’s two-year-old daughter, Lola James, has captured national attention. His conviction stemmed from a horrific attack in Haverfordwest, Pembrokeshire, where Lola sustained catastrophic injuries likened to those from a high-speed car crash. Doctors reported that the toddler had over 101 scratches and bruises on her small body.
Bevan’s violent history involved a swift move into Lola’s home shortly after connecting with her mother, Sinead James, on Facebook. His conviction followed a trial in which he denied the charges but ultimately received a sentence of at least 28 years behind bars.
A spokesperson for West Yorkshire Police stated, “Detectives have charged three men with murder after the death of Kyle Bevan at HMP Wakefield.” The police are continuing their investigation into the events leading to Bevan’s death, and the Prison Service has refrained from commenting further while the inquiry is ongoing.
The community is left reeling from this latest development, highlighting the ongoing issues within the prison system and the tragic consequences of violent crime. As the investigation unfolds, many are left wondering what led to the fatal incident in HMP Wakefield.
