CORRECTIONAL SERVICE & POLICE WERE LEFT OFF OF YESTERDAY'S LIST OF BAD ACTORS CODDLED BY THE COURTS (JUSTICE SYSTEM)

 

Neither one should have been left off. My apologies.  Both are under direct government supervision and both operate essentially "with impunity." Police literally kill innocent citizens and at most get their hands slapped. Here in Ontario we have the murder of Roger Kotanko by a Toronto police officer. That was about four years ago and the family and legal representatives have yet to even receive a copy of an alleged search warrant allowing police to enter his home and business. The entire (on-line You Tube) story is riddled with incompetence, stupidity, malice and as well arrogance and bravado as the lying, story telling and excuses get higher and deeper while the family literally waits years for even the tiniest scrap of justification for the likely illegal, cowboy shoot first and make excuses later attitudes of some police officers to be seriously examined. Unfortunately this illegal, unnecessary and fatal assault upon a citizen, resident, husband, father and bread winner is far from the only travesty inflicted upon Canadian citizens by our unaccountable, armed gangs (i.e. police).

Next we have the following article in today's Waterloo Region Record titled "How Maplehurst inmate abuse scandal led to the collapse of a murder case". This article refers to the recent abuses inflicted upon mostly unconvicted inmates awaiting trial at the Maplehurst jail near Milton . 200 inmates were subjected to mass assaults and collective punishments for the bad behaviour of a few . The treatment of inmates over two days has been described by Justice Clayton Conlan as "akin to torture". The coverup by jail staff and administration included key missing video evidence, falsified written reports by staff, lying to investigators and further lying in court.  For all of this all of one employee, the jail superintendent, Winston Wong, was fired. There have been years of condemnations by judges about conditions within Maplehurst  which have all been ignored by our governments and appropriate ministries and departments. Neither police nor prosecutors have laid criminal charges to date against staff or guards and based upon history likely won't.

Once again we see our expensive, impotent and corrupt government bodies doing what they do best which is bleed citizens through taxes and deliver crap in exchange.
