Ex-RCMP Murderer Keith Gregory Wiens Denied Day Parole

Published January 11, 2022 by Christopher di Armani Filed Under: Human Depravity, RCMP Hall of Shame, Violent Criminals


I'm thrilled to report ex-RCMP Corporal Keith Gregory Wiens was denied unsupervised day parole. This is great news as this is a man who should rot in prison until the day he dies. (Maybe even the day after.) Lynn Kalmring's family can breathe a sigh of relief this time, but every time Wiens applies for parole it must be extraordinarily challenging, emotionally. In 2019, … [Read more...]
