  "summary": "The family of Barbara Kentner, a woman killed in 2017 by Brayden Bushby in Thunder Bay, Ontario, is demanding an explanation from the Parole Board of Canada regarding the decision to grant her attacker full parole. Bushby, who pleaded guilty to aggravated assault, was convicted of manslaughter for the \"callous, misogynist attack\" that led to Kentner's death six months later. Despite being sentenced to eight years in prison, Bushby was recently granted full parole without meeting with the family. Kentner's sister, Connie Kentner, is calling for systemic changes to ensure that attackers of Indigenous women are held accountable and punished to the fullest extent of the law.",
