Killer and serial rapist Paul Bernardo denied parole

Killer and serial rapist Paul Bernardo has been denied parole again, his second failed attempt since becoming eligible in 2018.

The Parole Board of Canada took about an hour to reject his release application. Their decision came after Bernardo said he was a changed person who now has his sexual deviancy under control.

The board also heard from the parents of two teens he tortured and killed in the early 1990s.

“It feels like another exhumation, another violation, another loss,” Debbie Mahaffy says through her lawyer Tim Danson, of the parole hearings that repeat every two years. She & Donna French say “there is no cure for sexual psychopathy” & Bernardo should never be released.
