A former Winnipeg priest convicted of sexual abuse has been granted day parole.
Ronald Leger previously worked at Holy Family Parish on Archibald Street. He pleaded guilty to sexually abusing three boys between 1980 and 2004.
He was sentenced to two years in prison in February 2016.
The parole board has granted him day parole, and denied a request for full parole.
During his time in the community, Leger is to have zero contact with his victims.
He will not be allowed to go near areas where kids under 18 will be. The former priest is also prohibited from having any contact with male children under 18, unless he’s accompanied by an adult who knows his criminal history and have been approved by his parole officer.
