Board says it has concerns about Justin Hudson’s struggles with mental health and addiction, as well as his recent assault on another inmate
The Parole Board of Canada has denied day release for a man who beat and sexually assaulted a girl and a woman in separate random attacks in Winnipeg a decade ago.
The first attack occurred when the two were walking down a street and came across a 16-year-old girl. They robbed, beat and sexually assaulted her. She ended up in the frigid Assiniboine River and dragged herself out 100 metres away. She was later beaten unconscious with a hammer and left for dead. Court heard during sentencing that Hudson was neglected and sexually abused during his upbringing, some of which he spent in the care of Child and Family Services.
Hudson was also asked to rate his desire to address his anger and addiction issues on a scale of one to 10. He replied it’s at a three or a four.The board credited Hudson for his involvement with cultural programming throughout his sentence. He is from a northern Manitoba First Nation.
