“The parole system lets killers ask for early leave, which hurts victims' families over and over. I want the government to fix this broken system and put victims first.”
Official Hansard

Mr. Speaker, Tim and Mona Deslippe lost their son Nathan to a brutal murder in London, Ontario, in 2016. Nathan’s killer beat him to death in what the courts say was a prolonged and violent attack before the murderer dragged his body to the bathtub, took a shower and a selfie as well. The killer was sentenced to life with no parole for 14 years, yet Tim and Mona have already had to respond to multiple requests for escorted temporary leave, which have revictimized the family over and over again. When will the government fix its broken Liberal parole system and, after 11 long years, put victims first?
