Larry Takahashi, one of Canadas most notorious rapists, has been granted day parole in the Vancouver area.
Takahashi, dubbed the Balaclava Rapist, was known for breaking into homes and sexually assaulting women while wearing a ski mask. Edmonton Police said at the time that it was likely he assaulted over 100 women before being arrested in 1983.
In 1984, he faced 70 charges involving 22 women but was only convicted of 14 charges, including four counts of rape, sexual assault with a weapon, and six counts of disguise with intent.
He was given three life sentences.
