A high-risk sex offender will be living in Vancouver: police warn
A man who is serving a life sentence for convictions of sexual assault, forcible confinement, and second-degree murder will be living in Vancouver, according to police.
Scott Mackay is currently on day parole, so police are warning the public about the 61-year-old.
Police add that the high-risk sex offender “poses a significant risk to women in the community, including sex workers.”
According to the Times Colonist, Mackay was convicted of murdering a 20-year-old University of Victoria student in 1987.
Mackay is described as a 5’10” tall man with a slim build, short grey hair, and hazel-coloured eyes.
While he is living in the Vancouver area, police said there are several conditions he must follow.
The conditions include:
- he cannot consume, purchase, or possess alcohol;
- he cannot consume, purchase or possess drugs, other than prescribed medication;
- he must report all contacts with females to his parole supervisor;
- he cannot purchase, acquire, possess, or access pornography or sexually explicit material in any form or type of media;
- he will have a 10 pm curfew;
- he cannot own or operate a vehicle except in emergency situations that is approved by his parole supervisor; and
- he cannot be in the presence of sex workers.
Anyone who witnesses Mackay violating any of the listed conditions is asked to call 9-1-1.
