One of two men who was convicted in the horrific sexual assault and murder of a fellow classmate in Langford, B.C., more than a decade ago will remain in prison after the Parole Board of Canada dismissed his appeal for day parole.
In 2010, teenager Kruse Wellwood and co-accused Cameron Moffat killed 18-year-old Kimberly Proctor, after luring her to Wellwood's home.
The court also heard that Wellwood attended Proctor's memorial service before he was charged with her murder, while he was out on bail for assaulting his mother.Wellwood applied for day parole in 2022, which was rejected by the Parole Board of Canada on Aug. 4.
"The appeal division finds that you have not raised any grounds that would cause it to intervene on the board's decision to deny your day parole," reads the decision made on Feb. 13. It does note that Wellwood's commitment to program skills to manage some of his risky behaviours was rated between moderate and good last year when he applied for day parole.
