A Saskatchewan farmer who killed his severely disabled daughter has lost his bid to be away from his British Columbia halfway house five days a week.
But the National Parole Board did extend day parole for 57-year-old Robert Latimer for another six months
Latimer, who is allowed to visit his family in Wilkie, Saskatchewan for 120 hours a month, will be eligible for full parole on December 8th.
The parole board said while Latimer is "successfully reintegrating" into the community," he does not yet qualify for expanded leave.
Latimer is serving a life sentence for second-degree murder in the 1993 carbon monoxide death of his 12-year-old daughter, Tracy.
