Britain's youngest female murderer, known as the "Devil's Daughter", could be about to walk free.
Sharon Carr was just 12-years-old when she stabbed stranger Katie Rackliff, 18, to death.
In an unprovoked attack, Carr plunged a knife into Katie more than 30 times after she spotted her walking home from a night out in June 1992, the Mirror reports.

The murder was finally solved two years later when Carr boasted about knifing Katie while banged up in a young offender's institution. The twisted child even wrote in her diary about what she had done.
Now, more than 30 years on from the stabbing, Carr is about to find out if she will be freed from prison with a parole review coming up.
A source told the Mirror "there have been signs in prison that she’s still a danger". They added: "She’s been in solitary confinement. No one will want to see her released."
Carr, now 42, was convicted in 1997 for Katie’s killing in Camberley, Surrey, and sentenced to life in prison with a minimum of 14 years.
She was considered too unstable to be released two years ago after she tried to get her restricted prisoner status downgraded, and she was denied permission to seek a judicial review after a judge heard she fantasised about murdering another inmate.
Carr was described as "extremely dangerous" when she was sentenced. The judge told her: "It is apparent both from the brutal manner in which you mutilated her body and chilling entries in your diary, that killing, as you put it, turns you on."
In one diary post, Carr wrote: "I was born to be a murderer. Killing for me is a mass turn-on and it just makes me so high I never want to come down.
"Every night I see the Devil in my dreams – sometimes even in my mirror, but I realise it was just me.”"
Following her arrest, police discovered Carr had decapitated a neighbour’s dog with a spade. There was also a suggestion from a friend she had fried live hamsters.
At an assessment centre, Carr tried to strangle two nurses and bragged about killing Katie on the phone to relatives. In another diary entry, she wrote: "I wish I could kill you again. I promise I’d make you suffer more. Your terrified screams turn me on."
A Parole Board spokesman said: "We can confirm the parole review has been referred to the Parole Board by the Secretary of State for Justice. Reviews are undertaken thoroughly and with extreme care. Protecting the public is our number one priority."
