PRINCE GEORGE – Cariboo-Prince George MP Todd Doherty is battling to have convicted serial killer Cody Legebokoff returned to maximum security prison. 

Doherty has written a letter to Minister of Public Safety Ralph Goodale emploring him to return Legebokoff to maximum security.

Doherty says in the letter that “Legebokoff has never taken any responsibility for his crimes or shown any remorse.”

Natasha Montgomery who was identified as one of Legebokoff’s adult victims has never been recovered.

“Despite numerous attempts to uncover the location of Natasha’s remains, Legebokoff has refused to provide any information and has, in fact, used this piece of information as leverage to better his own personal circumstances,” said Doherty.

Legebokoff was sentenced on September 16, 2014, but his official sentence began on November 27, 2013, the day he was arrested. He will be eligible for day parole after 22 years.
