The man convicted of killing Beatles singer and guitarist John Lennon was denied parole for a 12th time on Monday in New York.
New York corrections officials said the decision came after Mark David Chapman, 67, appeared before a parole board at the end of August, according to the Associated Press.Chapman is serving a sentence of 20 years to life at Green Haven Correctional Facility just north of New York City for shooting and killing Lennon outside his Upper West Side apartment on the night of Dec. 8, 1980, as he and his wife, Yoko Ono, were returning home.
While transcripts of his latest parole board appearance have yet to be made public, Chapman has expressed remorse in previous hearings, calling his actions “despicable” in 2020 and saying he would have “no complaint whatsoever” if he was kept in prison for the rest of his life. “I assassinated him ... because he was very, very, very famous, and that’s the only reason," Chapman said."And I was very, very, very, very much seeking self-glory, very selfish."Chapman’s next parole board appearance is scheduled for February 2024.
