A Lithuanian migrant who killed three members of the same family in a drug-fuelled crash has been released from prison early.
Aurelijus Cielevicius caused the deaths of Lisa Carter, 49, her husband Paul, 41, and her daughter Jade Mace, 25, when his BMW smashed head-on into their Vauxhall Mokka on the A47 near King’s Lynn, Norfolk.
All three were pronounced dead at the scene.
Cielevicius had been driving at more than 90mph and was under the influence of a cocktail of narcotics at the time of the crash.

Despite being sentenced to ten-and-a-half years in prison, he has been freed after serving just over three years.
He has since been deported to Lithuania under Sir Keir Starmer’s early removal scheme aimed at easing pressure on UK prisons.
The Early Release Scheme allows foreign nationals to be deported up to 18 months before their earliest release date.
Summer Mace, 26, who lost her mother, stepfather and sister in the crash, said she was “devastated” by the decision.

She said: "Overall, he served 3 years and 1 month for killing three beautiful people.
"We tried to fight against this injustice again but it is so difficult when we are fighting against people of the highest power who refuse to make changes or listen.
"That man is free now, free to go anywhere in the world other than the UK. He can now live his life whilst we are all stuck with a life sentence."
According to the Eastern Daily Press, Ms Mace received a letter from Prisons Minister Lord Timpson saying he could not intervene in the case.
