Robert Pickton, one of Canada's most notorious serial killers, has become eligible to apply for parole despite murdering at least 26 women
-
He allegedly confessed to 49 murders, and once quipped that he wanted to kill another woman to make it an 'even fifty'
-
His victims' families have reacted with outrage at his eligibility for parole, with one saying his place back in the spotlight makes her feel 'sick to my stomach'
Canadian prison officials are under fire as the nation's most notorious serial killer has become eligible for parole.
The outraged families of the victims of Robert Pickton, now in his 70s, say they are 'disgusted' by the fact he has aged into parole eligibility, despite killing at least 26 women on his pig farm.
He was jailed for life without the possibility of parole for 25 years in 2007. But a Canadian law means prison sentences can only be served concurrently - at the same time - rather than consecutively - one after the other. That means Pickton is now eligible to apply for day parole and can apply for full parole from 2027.
Identifying all the remains became complicated as detectives came to fear Pickton had cannibalized some of his victims.
>In 2004, two years after the first search, prosecutors revealed Pickton may have ground up his victims and mixed it into the pork products from his farm that he then sold to customers.
