ST. JOHN'S, N.L. -- Last Friday, a Parole Board of Canada decision gave Greg Parsons a momentary reprieve from weeks of night terrors and unearthed trauma.
"It takes a terrible toll," he said in an interview Tuesday. "I have PTSD, I can't function, I'm not going to be able to go into work." The statement he delivered last Friday was his fourth, and this time the hearing was unexpected. He said the parole board contacted him a few weeks ago, saying they were concerned about Doyle's behaviour and were reviewing his day parole privileges.Lisa Freeman said she can relate to that feeling. Her father, Roland Slingerland, was murdered in Oshawa, Ont., in 1991. The parole process for his killer, Terrance Porter, began in 2012 and he was granted day parole last April, she said.
Like Doyle, her father's killer was convicted of second-degree murder and is now serving a life sentence. Both were recently eligible for parole, and both will be under the watch of the parole board for the rest of their lives. If they fall out of line, they could be subject to a hearing. Freeman says that means she and Parsons are always waiting for an unexpected letter from the parole board inviting them to give a statement at a hearing and relive their traumas all over again.
"It needs to be strengthened, it needs to be enforced, it needs a real legislative backbone to it," she said. As for the bill itself, she said it needs to include more supports for victims, especially during the parole process.
