L – The Millstone verses apply. When I compare my childhood to that common today. Back then, one reason for the freedom was that everyone in the family and the neighbourhood, including teachers, were watching out for children. Someone, who killed a child would have either been hanged or spent the rest of their life in prison or a lunatic asylum.
Also a society that has more small animal veterinarians than pediatricians is not a child friendly society.
I’m just curious. Did the Cree Nation’s police force use GPR to locate the buried body of this 8yo girl? Did this Cree Residential “School” … where the girl was being taught about drinking, methamphetamine and sexual abuse … put the girl in an unmarked grave?
Just curious.
Anyone who murders a child has forfeited his or her life … no deals …. the death penalty is what is called for.
Life in prison is nothing but room and board paid for my you and me. Screw that! … Death penalty!
We are talking about helpless, innocent child.
Yup.
Some people are just too criminally stupid to run free.
The “Crown” in this case.
The Police may be starting to realize,they are seen as the enablers.
They and their “clients”,as the RCMP call their pet criminals, are the problem.
We pay,they refuse to do the job,yet insist on the exclusive right to use force..
Maybe,just maybe, the EPF are sensing which way the wind blows.
As for The Alberta Crown?
A lost cause.
Until they are rewarded for their treatment of The Coutts 13,nothing will change.
700 days in remand each..
Now that would be a fitting reward.
As long as they are fired and have their bank accounts frozen as soon as arrested.
Justice is not Just Us.
I do not understand Gurney’s dislike of “how the police handled this.”
As I read it, he’s criticizing the police for making known to the public that the prosecutorial function has gone off the rails.
He wants this all handled quietly – secretly, hidden from the citizenry – to keep things smooth, or civil, or . . . something?
Maybe I’m misunderstanding him. But that strikes me as the exact wrong elitist mentality. “Hide this murder and let the state make its own quiet comfortable deals.”
