B.C. man’s book co-authored by criminologist examines a life of murder and crime
If you meet the Chilliwack resident you won’t see the terrible experiences he has endured, nor the terrible things he has done.
“On the third day, I grabbed his head, tilted it back, put his own gun under his chin, and shot him.” From that sentence in January 1982 until his release on day parole on Dec. 6, 2013, a little under 32 years, Yves was only out of prison for 11 months. Ask him about capital punishment and for a man who has committed the most serious offences in the criminal code, his answer is surprising.The maximum sentence in Canada of life in prison with no chance of parole for 25 years is a waste of a life for Yves.
If a man is given 10 years to change then that’s a positive outcome for the system. And if he can’t change? He stays incarcerated.
