It's Monday.
Must be time for another Kelly Ellard- Reena Virk trial.
Nice to know our prosecution teams and our juries and judges are all doing such a fine job.
Here's the really good part.
If the Supreme Court orders a new trail, guess who gets to decide if we should proceed or let Ellard, already convicted a few dozen times (I exaggerate!), plead guilty to something of a lesser charge, like crossing a bridge without a license?
That's right.
The man posing as the Attorney-General, that famed holder of all the high gold standards of justice in this province - the transparent one, Monseigneur Opaque.
This has to be a gold plated diamond encrusted example of how wrong our justice system has gone. Imagine if every offender was treated the same way MZ Ellard has been treated.
ReplyDelete" Yes Mr. Berner we no that you were found guilty of making an illegal left turn on the night of Jnauary 5 1962. We realize that this is your 75th appeal on the charge and you were only 12 years old at the time so we give up.You are free to go . Forget the $11 fine"
Mz Ellard is an excellent example of a need for an overhaul. Death penalty maybe?
