Murder of Winnipeg group home manager prompts changes to statutory release reviews


The Correctional Service of Canada has recommended changes to its policies after the 2018 murder of a Winnipeg group home manager, who was killed by a man on statutory release. On Dec. 17, 2018, Moar stabbed and killed 34-year-old Ricardo Hibi, a father and the manager of a group home for young at-risk men. "By law, the PBC cannot act unilaterally in conducting a detention review for an offender's statutory release," the parole board said. It recommended ordering a secondary review before an inmate's statutory release whenever new information arises involving serious harm or death. Police also charged Moar with second-degree murder in the death of Adam Kent Monias while the two were inmates in August 2018.
