A drug-affected teenager who killed a pregnant woman and her partner when he ploughed into them in a stolen four-wheel drive will be released from custody six years after the tragedy.

Matthew Field and partner, Kate Leadbetter, who was six months pregnant, were walking their dogs south-east of Brisbane on Australia Day last year when the vehicle struck them.
