Convicted pimp Reza Moazami walks out on parole hearing [Video]

An angry convicted trafficker walked out on his parole board hearing Tuesday.

Reza Moazami is serving a lengthy sentence for dozens of crimes after he became the first person in British Columbia to be convicted of human trafficking in 2014.

His 11 victims ranged in age from 14 to 19 years old.

The Vancouver pimp was trying to get an unescorted temporary absence so he could visit his mom, but the hearing quickly became confrontational when the board raised concerns about a psychological report. That report indicates he remains a high risk to reoffend.

A frustrated Moazami wanted to adjourn the hearing, but when he was told that wasn’t permitted, he left anyway.

His request for an unescorted temporary absence was not supported by his parole officer.

The board has not yet made its decision on Moazami’s request.
