Anger still percolates through the community around Bridgewater, fifteen years after the murder of 12-year-old Karissa Boudreau. Sherri Aikenhead was working in the Nova Scotia Department of Justice when Penny Boudreau pleaded guilty to the second-degree murder of her daughter. She vowed to someday tell that story and she has in her new true crime book called Mommy Don’t: From Mother to Murderer / The True Story of Penny and Karissa Boudreau. This week marks the fifteenth anniversary of the charge being laid. It also gives Penny the opportunity to apply for early parole under the so-called Faint Hope Clause. That is a since released statutory provision that allowed prisoners who have been sentenced to life imprisonment with a parole eligibility period of greater than 15 years to apply for early parole once they have served 15 years. Aikenhead reflects on the writing of the book, the chance for parole and her thoughts on the impacts felt on the community a decade and a half later.
