Abrosimo poses a risk of “significant harm” to the safety of adolescents and women, police say, including both acquaintances and strangers.
He is bound by a number of terms, including staying away from girls under the age of 18, not consuming alcohol and keeping out of Abbotsford, Langley and Vancouver Island.
Abrosimo is also not supposed to go near playgrounds, schools and other places children congregate unless accompanied by an adult who is approved by his parole supervisor.
