The man who shot and killed a Hells Angels gang member on a rural Langley property in 2016 will be granted statutory release from prison, but only to a supervised halfway house, the Parole Board of Canada has decided.

Jason Francis Wallace for killing Robert Green in a Quonset hut on 72nd Avenue.

Wallace, Green, and several other men had been partying at the rural property, and all had been consuming drugs and alcohol for hours.

According to the Parole Board害羞草研究所檚 release documents, Wallace grabbed a gun from the waistband of a friend and accidentally shot Green, killing him instantly.

Wallace had been trying to fire a warning shot at some other men who were at the party, who Wallace believed were coming at him. Wallace was 害羞草研究所済rossly intoxicated害羞草研究所 at the time.

Wallace turned himself in to the RCMP in Surrey. He plead guilty and was sentenced to six years, nine months, and 10 days.

Another friend of Wallace害羞草研究所檚 who had been at the scene, Shaun Clary, was found murdered and dismembered a week after Green害羞草研究所檚 death, on Langley害羞草研究所檚 Robertson Crescent. IHIT has said in the past that Clary害羞草研究所檚 killing is believed to be linked to the killing of Green.

Clary and Wallace both had ties to the Aldergrove-based 856 gang, which was allied with the Hells Angels.

Wallace is also serving a separate sentence for drug trafficking, after he was arrested in 2014 with methamphetamines, cocaine, heroin, Oxycontin pills, six cell phones, and a drug press and cocaine mold. The street value of the drugs was estimated at about about $600,000.

The Parole Board release decision noted that the killing of Green was not the first time Wallace has been involved in a serious violent incident.

In 2007, when he was just 18, Wallace stabbed another teenager in the chest in an unprovoked attack outside of a high school graduation house party in Brookswood. The victim suffered a collapsed lung. Wallace pleaded guilty to aggravated assault, but the judge accepted that Wallace had cut his gang ties in the wake of the attack and gave him a sentence of house arrest.

However, Wallace continued to rack up arrests and charges, although some were later stayed or resulted in acquittals. By 2010, local RCMP were again describing him as a member of the 856 gang.
