High-risk B.C. sex offender Randall Hopley, who went on the run for 10 days in November, will still be allowed overnight community leave with the approval of his parole officer, after the parole board decided not to impose new restrictions.

Premier David Eby says he “can’t fathom” the ruling and it isn’t acceptable that Mr. Hopley, who abducted a three-year-old boy in 2011, has been “released again with the same conditions.”
