Imagine getting a month out to prepare for your parole release 10 years after getting convicted for murder, not to mention her previous leave for basically faking native status.

Wait, what? Tell me it’s not as egregious as the title says.

The parole board lays out its reasoning pretty clearly. Also:

She’s not “out.”

“ Saunders was 26 when she died. Leggette attacked her from behind when she entered the apartment.
“Your boyfriend choked the victim, tried to suffocate her with several plastic bags, and hit her head off the floor twice,” said Henneberry’s parole decision, dated Sept. 25.”
How did we get to this point?

Convicted felons aren’t usually even granted leave to go to a funeral if a family member dies.
How are we letting a convicted murderer out unsupervised for a MONTH for personal development?

Go Bus? She should be left with a tracker and people should know how she looks like.
I should know that the person I am sitting next to is a criminal. Murderer.

There are absolutely no checks and balances for our court system currently. Other than a few mandatory SHALL’s, a judge can release almost any criminal who’s brought before them for bail solely based on their opinion. In contrast, the U.S has mandatories and minimums for a range of crimes. A judge can release someone on conditions and if that person murders someone the same day that judge faces no backlash, no discipline and no legal consequences.
Canada’s justice system is absolutely broken, if the public was aware of how broken and much of a joke it is the average person would be blown away.
I work law enforcement in Ontario and EVERY seasoned criminal knows our justice system is a joke. In fact, they joke about it and make reference that they’ll be out the next day anyways and we’re wasting our time.
A few months ago I arrested someone on the roadways for breaching his conditions of release (bail). His conditions were to remain in his primary from 9pm to 6am and when out of his residence he had to be with his surety. He was neither with his surety and the time was 10.30pm. This guy had 9 prior breaches of conditions already on his record, meaning he hasn’t complied with him conditions of release 9 prior times before already. I held him for bail and the very next day the judge released him ON THE SAME CONDITIONS AGAIN.
It is absolutely demoralizing for law enforcement in Canada right now to enforce the law. Everyone we arrest is released, dangerous, petty, thieves, fraudsters… you name it and they will be released. Almost every police media report being blasted out is the same old, person already on bail/conditions committed another offense and was re-arrested. It’s 75% the same people in Canada committing the majority of crime.

This is absolutely sick. Between this and seeing the Canadian flag destroyed by Palestinian protestors screaming “death to Canada” with no repercussions, I need to log off Reddit for the day. All the news does now is make me more and more ashamed of this countries government and justice system.

And people on Reddit are clueless why Canadians are overwhelmingly planning to vote for a party which promises to crack down on crime and our broken “justice” system.
