John Lennon Killer 'Ashamed' About Killing Beatles Star
Mark Chapman has told parole officials that he is ashamed about killing the former Beatle John Lennon.
Chapman shot Lennon when he was returning to his apartment in New York with his wife, Yoko Ono, in December 1980.
He was denied parole at the fifth attempt of trying earlier this month because of "concern for the public safety and welfare".
It has now emerged that Chapman told officials at the hearing that he now realises the significance of the life he took.
"I feel now at 53 I have grown into a deeper understanding of what a human life is. I have changed a lot,” he said.
Chapman has been imprisoned for the last 28 years over the killing. He will be allowed to apply for release again in 2010.

I think he is a dangerous loonie and should not be released.

- I would think if he was released then he himself may get killed or injured, as there are still so many angry people who hate this man for what he did.

- Release him.... He wont last long on the streets...

- John Lennon went up to heaven. St Peter said to him Can I have your autograph?
Lennon said "Sod off - I got caught like that last time!"
