Former Canadian pop-rock star Jacob Hoggard has been granted day parole to a halfway house after serving two years in federal custody for sexual assault.
The former Hedley frontman appeared before the Parole Board of Canada earlier this month for a parole hearing, but had to wait until this week for a decision. The board rejected his request for full parole but approved six months of day parole.
