A parole board rejected Allan Legere s request for supervised release Wednesday.
Legere, who has been called the Monster of the Miramichi, was convicted of murder, rape and arson in the early 1990s after he escaped from custody while serving a life sentence for murder. He terrorized the Miramichi community and killed four people over the course of seven months. Your risk is not manageable, parole board member Delaine Dew said as she delivered the decision. The victim harm is still felt to this day and you have a number of outstanding issues.
