Marco Muzzo, a drunk driver who was sentenced to 10 years in prison after a 2015 crash that took the lives of three children and one elderly man, has been granted day parole according to the mother of the children.
CP24 reports that Jennifer Neville-Lake posted confirmation of Muzzo's parole after a parole board hearing Tuesday at Beavercreek Minimum Security Institution.
Muzzo had pled guilty to multiple counts of impaired driving causing death and impaired driving causing bodily harm in relation to the crash that killed three children aged 2-9 and their 65-year-old grandfather.
Jennifer Neville-Lake posted her thoughts on Facebook after the hearing: “My family's killer, drunk driver Marco Michael Muzzo, has been granted day parole ... The car seats and safety gear we had installed in our brand new vehicle were not enough to protect my family from the wanton, selfish and disgusting actions of the offender. My dead are beyond the count of grief.”

“He has served just over one year for each of the deaths that he caused. It is just not fair that he can be released prior to serving all of the minimal sentence that he received for this destruction of my family. Please do not give this drunk driver any more privilege than he has already received.”
The Parole Board of Canada has not responded to the claim, but says that it will release a statement on Wednesday.
Muzzo was previously denied parole in 2018. According to one toxicoligist, Muzzo was approximately three times the legal limit when the crash occurred.
