Kelsey Grammer expected at killer’s parole hearing
Posted on Jul 27, 2009 under Actors | 1 Comment
Frasier star Kelsey Grammer is expected to come face to face with the man convicted of killing his sister at a US parole hearing today.
Karen Grammer was killed at the age of 18 after she was abducted on July 1, 1975, outside a Red Lobster seafood restaurant after an attempted robbery.
She was raped and stabbed in the throat and back.
Freddie Glenn, 52, who is serving a life sentence for the killing, is now eligible for parole.
A Department of Corrections spokeswoman said Grammer plans to attend the hearing at the Limon Correctional Facility in Lincoln County, Colorado.
Colorado state law no longer allows parole for those sentenced to life in prison for first-degree murder.
But Glenn was convicted before the law changed, so it doesn’t apply to his case.
Grammer, 54, best known for his role as Dr Frasier Crane on TV sitcom Frasier, has previously vowed to speak on his sister’s behalf if her killer ever became eligible for parole.
Grammer’s father was also murdered.
