WEST Australian rial killer Catherine Birnie has again been denied parole.
The Prisoners Review Board began the review in January and the final decision was made this week by Attorney-General Michael Mischin.
"The attorney-general has accepted a recommendation from the Prisoners Review Board that Catherine Birnie not be released on parole," a spokeswoman said.
Under law, Birnie's life sentence is reviewed every three years, so her next statutory review will be in 2016.
Former Attorney-General Christian Porter, who last year left state politics for a tilt at the federal arena, in March 2010 decided Birnie would not be placed on parole or put into a re-socialisation program.
WA's attorney-general in 2007, Jim McGinty, said Birnie should never be freed from jail.
Birnie and her late partner David Birnie raped, stabbed, strangled and clubbed to death four victims in their Willagee house, in Perth's southern suburbs, in 1986.
They were caught only when a fifth intended victim escaped after they abducted her at knifepoint.
The pair were handed strict-security life sentences for the murders.
David Birnie hanged himself in his protective custody Casuarina Prison cell in 2005. She wasn't allowed to attend his funeral.
A 2007 review of Birnie, who is serving her sentence at Bandyup Women's Prison on Perth's north-eastern outskirts, found she was at low risk of reoffending but her release was rejected because of the extreme nature of her crimes.
Birnie, now 62, left her husband and six children in 1985 to live with David Birnie.
She did not marry him but took his surname.
