New details have emerged about one of PC Andrew Harperās killers behind bars, and itās raising serious questions about whether heās really ready to walk free. Jessie Cole, who was convicted alongside Albert Bowers for the manslaughter of the beloved officer, is reportedly still considered a major threat inside one of Britainās toughest prisons.
According to internal records, Cole, now 24, is described by staff at Whitemoor prison in Cambridgeshire as āviolentā and a ārisk to staff,ā with an alert labeling him a āclimber.ā These designations are typically linked to concerning behavior, such as threats or violence, according to sources familiar with the system.
Despite being considered for early release under a controversial scheme that has sparked a public outcry, Cole remains classified as a Category A prisonerāthe highest security level reserved for those considered the most dangerous. Inmates nearing the end of their sentences are usually moved to lower-security facilities, but Cole has reportedly not been transferred.




Sources claim his behavior inside hasnāt helped his case. āJessie should never have been considered for early release because of his crime,ā one insider said. āHe is a difficult and dangerous prisoner, and a lot of inmates and staff are terrified of him.ā
Cole and Bowers were sentenced in 2020 for their role in the death of the newlywed officer, who was killed during a burglary getaway in Berkshire. The pair, who were 17 at the time, were passengers in a car driven by Henry Long, who received a 16-year sentence and is not eligible for early release.
The possibility that Cole and Bowers could be freed after serving half their sentence has ignited fury, with over a million people signing a petition to keep them locked up. The government has stated that it does not believe they should be released a day earlier than originally planned, and the prime minister has reportedly pushed for a plan to keep more serious offenders behind bars.
With mounting public pressure and internal reports painting a troubling picture of Coleās status, the question remainsāwill any of this be enough to stop them from getting out early?
