Judicial Betrayals
January 10, 2008: Toronto Federal Judge Barry L. Strayer undermines the Canadian federal government's attempt to control marijuana use, by ruling that 'medical marijuana users' cannot be limited to growing their own or buying from a government approved source, thereby legalizing their purchase of the drug from the illicit drug industry and assisting its market.
January 24, 2008: Alberta Judge Eric Macklin sentences Marvin G. Smith to two years home-arrest outside of his work time, and five year driving suspension, for the culpable killing of RCMP Officer Jose Agostinho and injuring of officer Robert Haney by dangerous and impaired driving. This is Smith's second offence (first overturned on appeal) for a similar crime on the same highway ten years before.
January 25, 2008: Quebec Court Judge Sylvie Durand sentences ex-Montreal Police officer Pierre Goulet to an effective 27 months prison for smuggling large amounts of drug money for organized crime, although the two charges of which he was found guilty each carried a maximum of ten years in prison. The proceeds of his crimes are not confiscated. (Goulet only resigned from the Montreal Police on the day he admitted guilt, had used his police status to criminal advantage, and was moonlighting as a guard at Trudeau International Airport).
February 27, 2008: British Columbia Provincial Judge William Kitchen sentences 20-year-old dole-supported drug-addict Darcy Lance Jones of no-fixed-address, for violently attacking and robbing 81-year-old Dr Peter Collins in Vancouver’s Holy Rosary Cathedral, to house-arrest for two years less a day followed by three years probation. (No prison time).
March 27, 2008: Although ruled a criminal organization in Ontario and Quebec, and drug-trafficking being a Federal offence, British Columbia Judge Anne MacKenzie rules that Hells Angels are not a criminal organization, in an E-Pandora prosecution. Further E-Pandora prosecutions may affect this BC verdict on Hells Angels.
May 5, 2008: British Columbia Supreme Court Judge Anne MacKenzie sentences Andrew Rempel, a "high-level wholesale drug-trafficker" (Federal Prosecutor Devlin) and alleged Hells Angels member, to an effective nine months prison as having "substantial potential for rehabilitation" (Justice MacKenzie); which effectively means that age and personal potential mitigate punishment, compared to older persons of less potential. Is this called justice?
May 14, 2008: Vancouver Parole Board spokesman Patrick Storey says the board had no choice but to release Marcellus Norman Jacob, 26, known as Marcel, because he had served the required two-thirds of his sentence, even though "clinical opinion is that you are at moderate-to-high-risk for future violent offending and for future sexual violence ... Females, especially young females, are likely to be your future victims." So, when is a sentence a sentence? And more ominously - Vancouver police spokesman Const. Tim Fanning said Jacob doesn't show up in the police database.
June 18, 2008: Vancouver Chief Constable Jim Chu publicly appeals to the Judiciary to sentence appropriately, saying -
"In Vancouver the situation has reached ludicrous proportions ... we have literally thousands of these criminals who in any other city would be classified as chronic offenders after they have had five criminal convictions."  He said that here, after more than 30 convictions their length of sentencing even begins to reduce. Chu said - "These criminals primarily commit property crimes to feed their drug addictions. One super-chronic offender has 80 convictions and a crack cocaine addiction. He needs to steal daily, even hourly, to feed his habit, which gobbles up more than $1.2 million worth of property in a year."
And our Judges are certainly not helping the victim-public!
June 18, 2008: Quebec Superior Court Judge Suzanne Tessier overturns a father's discipline of his 12-year-old daughter (grounded from a school trip for repeatedly violating his instructions against risky internet behaviour by chatting on websites her father had tried to block and then posting 'inappropriate' pictures of herself online via a friend's computer).
Intrusive “human rights” activism by the Judiciary!
July 7, 2008: Moncton Provincial Court Associate Chief Judge Pierre W. Arseneault acquits Kinte Ambrose of any crime (after disallowing his confiscated marijuana as evidence), who had been arrested while transporting 20 kilograms of marijuana on the Trans-Canada Highway (a known drug-pipeline), on the grounds that the arresting officer had not enough reason to suspect the suspect.
Would the same verdict have applied if the contraband was the corpse of a murder victim? From Judge Arseneault's reasoning, probably.
July 9, 2008: Madam Justice M. Anne Rowles of the British Columbia appeal court releases Sikh terrorist Inderjit Singh Reyat (convicted of complicity in the bombing of Air India and Japan's Narita International Airport) on bail (for perjury protecting his fellow terrorists) after 20-years in prison, on the grounds that his perjury about the conspiracy to murder and the conspiracy to murder are [somehow] not legally connected. Even though Justice Ian Josephson in his ruling had called Reyat an "unmitigated liar under oath" (27 times) which tragically resulted in acquittal of his co-conspirators Malik and Bagri for the horrific bombing deaths of 331 men, women and children.
Strangely, Justice Anne Rowles declared in her judgment of Reyat
Yet Reyat's imprisonment only began February 1988, which until now amounts to no more than about 20 years. At the time of his arrest by British police he was working for Jaguar which doesn't really qualify as imprisonment. Someone appears to have misinformed Madam Judge and she believed it, or she simply needs a calculator.
Far worse: Reyat's 20-years for 331 innocents-killed amounts to just over 22-days imprisonment for each life terminated. What a devaluation of human life by our unaccountable judiciary!
