In England and Wales, life imprisonment is a sentence that lasts until the death of the prisoner, although in most cases the prisoner will be eligible for early release after a minimum term set by the judge. In exceptional cases, however, a judge may impose a "whole life order", meaning that the offender is never considered for parole, although they may still be released on compassionate grounds at the discretion of the Home Secretary. Whole life orders are usually imposed for aggravated murder, and can only be imposed where the offender was at least 21 years old at the time of the offence being committed.

  • Cet article présente des affaires où les condamnés ont reçu la peine d' emprisonnement à vie en Angleterre et au Pays de Galles. Le Royaume-Uni applique le « whole life tariff », c'est-à-dire la perpétuité sans possibilité de libération conditionnelle. Dans ce cas, une dérogation n'est possible qu'à l'initiative du ministre de l'intérieur ("the Home Secretary"), lorsque le condamné manifeste un comportement exemplaire au bout de 25 ans au moins ou un état de santé absolument incompatible avec l'incarcération. Dans la pratique, ces deux possibilités de réinsertion n'ont jamais été accordées (sauf une pour la libération pour cause de santé, mais l'on n'est pas sûr que le criminel concerné eût été réellement condamné au whole life tariff).
