Parole Board Revokes Jeremiah Valentine’s Release After First-Degree Murder Charge in Montreal

The decision cites untested allegations from a July 15 downtown shooting as grounds for public‑safety risk.

Overview

  • Quebec prosecutors say Valentine is charged with first-degree murder in the death of Abdeck Kenedith Ibrahim, with the case due back in court in January.
  • The Parole Board of Canada revoked his parole in a late October decision that relied on available information about the Montreal incident.
  • The decision alleges Valentine argued with the victim after approaching the victim’s partner, left, then returned about 20 minutes later and fired a gun.
  • Board members said the alleged conduct would breach a lifetime firearms ban and described a risk to bystanders’ safety.
  • An earlier board ruling had noted a 2021 assessment placing Valentine at high risk for violent recidivism even as he was granted full parole in January 2025.
