Saskatchewan stabbings: Parole board said Myles Sanderson didn’t pose risk months before attacks – despite 59 convictions

Regina Police Department

Myles Sanderson, one of the suspects in the Saskatchewan stabbings who sent a province-wide manhunt into its third day, accrued 59 criminal convictions since turning 18, local news reported.

What’s more, seven months before the 32-year-old is suspected to have carried out one of the deadliest mass killings in modern Canadian history, a Parole Board of Canada found that Myles Sanderson would “not present an undue risk,” and freeing him would “contribute to the protection of society” by facilitating his reintegration, Global News reported.
