The fraudster Lacroix is ​​still in trouble

Fraudster Vincent Lacroix, who was behind the big plan 20 years ago, has to return home half a month after making threatening remarks against his neighbor.

“Behavior […] One of your usual publishing conditions is a major violation of law and order and not disturbing public order. When the situation is assessed, the Commission considers it reasonable to place a more significant framework, ”reads the September 20 decision of the Parole Board of Canada (BBC).

On August 27, fraudster Vincent Lacrois, 54, was arrested after a verbal altercation with a neighbor, who allegedly threatened him. During the exchange he himself appears to have felt a threat to his family, the document explains.

Special order

To avoid escalating the conflict, a special order was issued on August 30 to prevent him from returning to his home.

“I lost everything. It was a shock in a lifetime, especially at my age. […] He completely stole my pension. I have no other pension fund, ”Michael Vagina told TVA Nouvelles in 2019, after years of legal setbacks to recover her money.
