Slain parole officer faced unnecessary danger: probe

Article


Louise Pargeter, 34, was visiting Eli Ulayuk in October 2004 when he hit her several times with a hammer, then strangled her to death, marking the first time a Canadian parole officer was killed on the job.

..
Ulayuk pleaded guilty to second-degree murder last month. A judge sentenced him to life in prison, recommending no parole for at least 25 years

In 1988, Ulayuk killed a 23-year-old woman by stabbing and then strangling her.

"There's no absolute guarantee, no predicting criminal behaviour in a lot of cases, " Campbell said.



No predicting criminal behavour ?
the guy murdered a woman in an exceptionally violent and brutal mannor, and you sent an unarmed FEMALE parole officer to his home, ALONE , to meet with him ?

I would arrest you for manslaughter , personally. Criminal neglegence causing the death of your own employee.


"But we're doing everything we can to reduce the risks to not only our officers, but the communities at large."


Judging by this incident, "everything you can" is "diddly squat" ...
