Notorious Snapchat killer driver Addil Haroon has been moved to an open prison - despite serving just a third of his six-year sentence.
The family of his victim Joseph Brown-Lartey have also heard Haroon will be allowed out for visits - a move they’ve described as a ‘massive kick in the teeth’.
Joseph, 25, died instantly when the an Audi A6 hire car driven by Haroon, 19, ran a red light at 80mph and smashed into his car at a crossroads in Rochdale in 2014.
The impact of the crash was so severe Joseph’s vehicle, also an Audi, split in two.
Manchester Crown Court at Minshull Street was told Haroon - who only had a provisional licence - tried to flee the scene in a taxi after the smash.
The court also heard Haroon, of Essex Street, Rochdale, had taken a picture on his mobile phone the previous night while racing on the M62 at 142mph.
He told friend in a Snapchat message attached to the picture: “Leeds to Rochdale in 11 minutes. Catch me.”
