Ex con Rene Durocher urges youth to choose reform over crime
Rene Durocher, a 49 year old ex convict released in 1990, spoke at Hamiota Collegiate sharing how family violence led to a life of crime. He described early offences, multiple prison terms, a major 1985 Brinks heist, and a path to rehabilitation through therapy and family support. He now tours Manitoba schools urging youth to avoid crime and supports victims, advocating systemic changes.
