The triple killer will be released on November 26th, with the NSW Parole Authority concluding that it was the “only viable option”.
The maximum sentence for the murder expires in seven months.
The parole allows the agency to put Arthurell under strict supervision. If he were released after his prison term was up, he would be completely unsupervised.
Arthurell had moved in with Mrs. Mulhall, who was deeply religious after he was paroled in 1991.
She had become his pen pal while he was in a Darwin prison.
Arthurell’s report includes prison sentences for two unrelated manslaughter.
In 1974 he spent four and a half years in prison for stabbing his stepfather, Tom Thornton.
Arthurell also spent six years in the house beating 19-year-old seaman Ross Browning.
Ms. Mulhall’s family had urged Arthurell to remain behind bars, but their appeals were unsuccessful.
Police Secretary David Elliott told Ben Fordham over 2GB this morning he would speak to NSW Attorney General Mark Speakman today.
“In my opinion, the judiciary should never have given him the opportunity to obtain parole. I share the community’s disgust, ”he said.
In a statement, the State Parole Authority (SPA) noted that Arthurell has been denied parole four times since it was approved in 2015.
The rejection came on the recommendation of the Serious Offenders Review Council, which was tasked with managing criminals like Arthurell.
“After a public hearing today, and after reviewing all available evidence, the SPA determined that surveillance on parole, rather than surveillance at the end of the May 2021 verdict, was the better option for community protection,” the SPA statement read.
The council advised parole as they felt it was “imperative” to supervise Arthurell “as long as possible.”
After his release, he will be placed in “assisted housing”.
Arthurell is electronically monitored and is not allowed to drink alcohol.
He must not own firearms or other prohibited weapons and must not contact, pursue, harass or intimidate the families of his victims.
