Stanford will be residing in Edmonton after he is released from jail following a custodial sentence related to a conviction of a violent sexual offence committed in Edmonton in 2017. He is currently subject to a court order, with conditions and will be managed by the Behavioural Assessment Unit of the Edmonton Police Service.
Given Stanford’s criminal history, including a sexual offence, an aircraft hijacking and an attempted murder, he has been incarcerated for considerable periods of time but is still believed to be a high risk to reoffend.
Stanford has been placed on a series of court-ordered conditions including, but not limited to:
- You shall not attend areas or specific locations or associate with specific individuals that your Supervisor has given you instructions to avoid.
- You shall have no contact, direct or indirect, with the victims of your index offence.
- You shall not associate with anyone known to have a criminal record for sexual offences except for participants in a program or individuals approved by your Supervisor.
- You must live at a residence approved by the Alberta Court of Justice or your Supervisor and you must not change that address until you have received written approval from your Supervisor.
- You shall abide by a curfew by being in your approved residence daily between the hours of 9 p.m. and 6 a.m. unless a varied time is approved in writing by your Supervisor.
- You shall not purchase, possess, or consume any alcoholic beverages or cannabis products. You shall not consume or possess any drug listed in the schedules of the Controlled Drugs and Substances Act, any prescription drugs not prescribed to you, or any other intoxicating substances. You shall report all prescribed and over-the-counter medications to your Supervisor and shall only use them in the manner prescribed by the physician or, in the case of over-the-counter medication, as directed on the packaging.
