The man who shot and killed a Hells Angels gang member on a rural Langley property in 2016 will be granted statutory release from prison, but only to a supervised halfway house, the Parole Board of Canada has decided.

Jason Francis Wallace for killing Robert Green in a Quonset hut on 72nd Avenue.

Wallace, Green, and several other men had been partying at the rural property, and all had been consuming drugs and alcohol for hours.

According to the Parole Boardsa国际传媒檚 release documents, Wallace grabbed a gun from the waistband of a friend and accidentally shot Green, killing him instantly.

Wallace had been trying to fire a warning shot at some other men who were at the party, who Wallace believed were coming at him. Wallace was sa国际传媒済rossly intoxicatedsa国际传媒� at the time.

Wallace turned himself in to the RCMP in Surrey. He plead guilty and was sentenced to six years, nine months, and 10 days.

Another friend of Wallacesa国际传媒檚 who had been at the scene, Shaun Clary, was found murdered and dismembered a week after Greensa国际传媒檚 death, on Langleysa国际传媒檚 Robertson Crescent. IHIT has said in the past that Clarysa国际传媒檚 killing is believed to be linked to the killing of Green.

Clary and Wallace both had ties to the Aldergrove-based 856 gang, which was allied with the Hells Angels.

Wallace is also serving a separate sentence for drug trafficking, after he was arrested in 2014 with methamphetamines, cocaine, heroin, Oxycontin pills, six cell phones, and a drug press and cocaine mold. The street value of the drugs was estimated at about about $600,000.

The Parole Board release decision noted that the killing of Green was not the first time Wallace has been involved in a serious violent incident.

In 2007, when he was just 18, Wallace stabbed another teenager in the chest in an unprovoked attack outside of a high school graduation house party in Brookswood. The victim suffered a collapsed lung. Wallace pleaded guilty to aggravated assault, but the judge accepted that Wallace had cut his gang ties in the wake of the attack and gave him a sentence of house arrest.

However, Wallace continued to rack up arrests and charges, although some were later stayed or resulted in acquittals. By 2010, local RCMP were again describing him as a member of the 856 gang.

Wallace was denied parole for the killing of Green when he applied in 2020, but with two thirds of his sentence now served, hesa国际传媒檚 being granted statutory release, as is standard with most offenders in Canada.

However, given his violent history and his criminal lifestyle, the Parole Board ruled he will have to live in a Community Correctional Centre, which are run by the federal government, or a Community Residential Facility, which are run by third parties, but are regulated by the Correctional Service.

Full release in the community was not in the cards, the Parole Board ruled.
