On January 7, 2025, the Manitoba Integrated High Risk Sex Offender Unit issued a Community Notification regarding the custodial release of 52-year-old Marcel Hank CHARLETTE.
Upon his release, CHARLETTE was subject to several conditions of a probation order, which included but was not limited to, a daily curfew and not to possess/consume intoxicating substances.
