The change to keep Baden-Clay behind bars for another decade

Queensland's government announced reforms that could keep murderer Gerard Baden-Clay in prison for an extra decade beyond his current 15-year non-parole period. Baden-Clay, 55, killed his wife Allison in 2012 and becomes parole-eligible next year. The reforms expand the "restricted prisoner" framework to all life-sentence offenders, requiring parole boards to consider victim submissions and publish decisions in the public interest.
