A former Saskatoon priest who sexually abused more than a dozen children will be out of prison in time to celebrate Thanksgiving dinner.
“This is just ludicrous,” one of William Hodgson Marshall’s alleged Saskatoon victims said Tuesday.
“I’m not afraid of him anymore, but it just pisses me off. He should spend the rest of his life behind bars.”
Marshall, who is in his early 90s, is due for statutory release from an Ontario prison Monday after reaching the two-thirds mark of his two-year sentence, according to Parole Board of Canada documents.
He was convicted of abusing 17 children while working at schools across Ontario during a 30-year period and also stands charged with abusing two Saskatoon boys at a Saskatoon high school in the 1960s.
