The 33-year-old Ibrahim was gunned down in a downtown Montreal square around 12:45 a.m. Tuesday. In 2009, Valentine pleaded guilty to second-degree murder and was given a life sentence with no chance of parole for 12 years in the 2005 shootout in downtown Toronto between rival gangs that killed 15-year-old Jane Creba. In its decision granting parole, the Parole Board of Canada says an August 2021 psychological assessment of Valentine indicated he had the highest level of risk — a 76 per cent chance of recidivism over a period of five years after release. However, the parole board says he made 'observable and measurable' change in prison, adding that his release will 'contribute to the protection of society.'
