This doesn't seem wise: Triple axe killer Thomas McCulloch is let out of prison to chop down trees
by David Taylor, Daily Mirror 16/09/2011

A TRIPLE axe murderer has been let loose in public – to chop down trees.

Thomas McCulloch completed a course at a nature reserve, where he helped clear a pathway by cutting trees and shrubs.

McCulloch and his gay lover Robert Mone butchered a nurse, a patient and a policeman at the State Hospital, Carstairs, South Lanarks, in 1976.

A prison source said: “He may be old now but there is evidence he is still a very dangerous man.

“I don’t think it’s a good idea to let a murderer like McCulloch near sharp implements like axes.”

2. Triple axes are difficult to kill.
A very dangerous man, indeed.
