Marcel Genaille pleaded guilty in 2023 to leaving the scene of a June 2021 collision that left a 59-year-old motorcyclist dead.

He was given an 18-month conditional sentence to be served in the community that included eight months of house arrest and a driving ban.

Last fall he escaped jail time after being caught driving an uninsured vehicle outside of his curfew period in September .

But on April 30 of this year , an RCMP officer conducting a curfew check discovered he wasn’t at home.
