High risk child abductor and sex offender Randall Hopley has been re-arrested only hours after being released from the Mission Institution. The arrest came as a violation of parole conditions involving a halfway house. Hopley was picked up by police in Vancouver Thursday afternoon and remains in custody. This is not the first time he’s been re-arrested - last year he was picked up ten days after cutting off his ankle bracelet and going AWOL. The 59-year-old Hopley made international headlines in 2011 after he abducted a three-year-old boy from a home in Sparwood.
