One of Western Australia's most notorious serial sex offenders, Dennis McKenna, could be released from prison within two weeks, it is understood.
McKenna has been described as among the worst paedophiles in the state's history. Reports indicate his imminent potential release has raised serious concerns about community safety.
The prospect of McKenna walking free has prompted fresh scrutiny of how Western Australia manages the release of high-risk sexual offenders back into the community.
Further details about the conditions or circumstances surrounding his possible release have not been confirmed at this stage.
