Yoko Thinks Lennon's Killer Should Remain In Prison

It will be 30 years ago come December that John Lennon was assassinated by Mark David Chapman, the deranged fan who'd been stalking him for two months.

Now, KYW's Bob Nelson reports, Chapman is up again for parole and Lennon's widow, Yoko Ono (above), is once again opposing his release from prison.

Ono thinks the man who killed her husband is still a threat:

"I think I'm being practical to ask that he not be released, because he can be a danger to other people, too.  Especially to us -- to me, Julian, and Sean -- but I think maybe he would be a danger to other people, too, maybe even to himself."

Yoko also said that in October, on what would have been John's 70th birthday, that he will be honored with the release of a large boxed set containing all of John's solo albums.
