One of South Australia's most notorious paedophiles has been released on parole, spending his first night in the community after walking out of the Adelaide Remand Centre.
Anthony Munro, 80, is now residing at an undisclosed location under very strict parole conditions, which include electronic monitoring.
The sexual predator will not be able to leave the premises for any reason without the permission of authorities and is banned from contacting any of his victims.
Munro is serving a 10-year jail term for violently and repeatedly sexually abusing three boys at Rapid Bay, Kangaroo Island and Glenelg between the 1960s and 1990s.
One of his victims told 7NEWS he is devastated at his abuser's release, saying it was not the outcome he wanted and that Munro continues to “wreak havoc with their lives”.
The former scout leader was once questioned by major crime detectives over the disappearance of the Beaumont children, but they have since ruled out any links between Munro and their abduction.
