A gunman who killed a beloved Scarborough dad after a bar fight in 2021 could walk out of jail on time served – thanks to the “absolutely incomprehensible” triple-bunking he’s endured in Toronto detention centres.

Black man given reduced sentence due to race, Quebec minister worries it sets bad precedent
A Quebec minister responsible for fighting racism is criticizing a ruling by a judge who reduced a convicted Black man’s sentence due to systemic discrimination.
In an interview with The Canadian Press, Christopher Skeete said that someone’s race should not be a factor affecting sentencing for a crime.
“I question whether or not as a society this is exactly where we want to go,” the minister said. “Do we really want to formalize discrimination in the attribution of sentences for people who perpetrate crimes?”
Affidavit Testimony Needed for Sentencing of Ottawa Police Detective Helen Grus
This is an urgent call to Canadians – including serving and retired police officers – to support Detective Helen Grus by preparing a simple sworn affidavit for her upcoming sentencing hearing.
What It Takes to Win a Parental Rights Case in Canada
Alberta-based lawyer James Kitchen has been litigating for years. As a self-described libertarian lawyer focused on human rights and individual freedoms, he has taken on cases involving issues such as freedom of expression, Charter challenges, and parental rights.
For him, it has become an increasingly uphill battle. He says that although parental rights are protected by law, Canada’s justice system has become “highly politicized,” creating a gap between the legal reality and what the law states on paper.
WARMINGTON: Peel cop union takes aim at judge’s misconduct ruling that freed accused
In Canada in 2025, there seems to be more important things at play than police finding a loaded gun, drugs and a suspect known to them allegedly asleep at the wheel outside a building known for human and narcotics trafficking.
Despite red flags in this matter, police have been reminded of this reality once again.
HUNTER: New Ontario minister for bail slams soft-on-crime feds
The severity of the crime no longer matters.
Shoplifting is on par with murder and sexual assault. Ultimately, every crook – two-bit or sophisticated – walks out of bail court with a free pass thanks to the Trudeau government’s mind-boggling homage to stupidity, Bill C-75.
I wouldn’t hold my breath “Law and Order” is likely too right wing for Ford.
ROBSON: Canada jails YouTuber for defying court — not for inciting terror
The Québec Superior Court’s order of 24 July 2025 that sent Montréal YouTuber Hicham Jerando to jail for thirty days was triggered less by his on-screen attacks on Moroccan judge Abdelrahim Hanin than by his open defiance of a Québec injunction ordering him to take those videos down—contempt, not content, put him behind bars.
Transgender serial sex offender gets indefinite sentence after TMU attack. Judge ‘alarmed’ by transfer to female jail
A Toronto judge has designated a repeat sex offender as dangerous and handed down an indefinite prison sentence — while expressing concern that the prisoner, who identifies as transgender, was granted a transfer to a women’s detention facility.
In a sentencing decision released last week, Ontario Court Justice Brock Jones said he was “alarmed” to learn that Charles Waddling-Leeson had been moved to a provincial women’s detention facility after starting a gender transition from male to female while in custody.
Courtroom tears work for feral teen participant in murderous swarming attack
‘If I had the opportunity to apologize to Mr. Lee I would’: Final girl to be sentenced in fatal swarming of Kenneth Lee
The last girl to face sentencing in the death of Kenneth Lee said she takes full responsibility for her part in the swarming attack.
After her tearful apology in Superior Court on Wednesday, the now 17-year-old girl learned it is unlikely she will return to jail with the Crown agreeing she has served her time already.
John Carpay: The Glaring Double Standard in the Prosecution of Lich and Barber
If Chris Barber and Tamara Lich had organized a series of massive rallies in Ottawa to protest the federal government’s failure to control the earth’s climate, would they have been criminally charged with mischief and held responsible for clogging up Ottawa’s downtown core?
If Tamara Lich had urged thousands of Canadians to come to Ottawa to support indigenous rights, and if this very large protest had inconvenienced some Ottawa residents for weeks on end, would they have been portrayed in the media (even before they arrived in Ottawa) as dangerous and potentially violent members of a “fringe minority” with “unacceptable views”?
Judge in Hockey Canada sex assault trial came out swinging in her verdict, and she got it right
The complainant’s testimony was not credible (that’s the judge speaking) but she certainly did take the stand with an attitude of presumed credibility (that’s me speaking).
She did those things, said those things, enticed those things — a succubus who aggressively demanded the sex acts that unfolded in room 209 of the Delta Armouries Hotel more than seven years ago — maybe even initiated them. No evidence beyond a reasonable doubt that consent wasn’t given, from hookup start with a hunky hockey player to tawdry finish with five hockey players variously sexually serviced. Oral sex, vaginal sex and moaning masturbatory sex for their stunned amusement.
3rd Time Lucky?
High-risk offender released from custody for third time
A high-risk offender has once again been released from custody in Guelph.
A judge made that ruling Thursday for 36-year-old Medhani Yohans, a known high-risk offender. His whereabouts are currently unknown.
Yohans has a history of violence, including two sexual assaults on strangers. The Guelph Police Service believes he poses a risk to the community, particularly to women, and worry he may go on to commit similar offences.

14 Year Old Dead Eyed Demon Likely To Serve 4 Year’s Max
The Supreme Court just made it much more difficult to sentence youth offenders as adults
The 14-year-old charged in the fatal stabbing of a senior in a Toronto parking lot will serve, at most, four years in prison if convicted of second-degree murder. Four years – roughly the time it takes to finish a degree, or renew a mortgage term – a blink of time compared to the 71 years that the accused allegedly extinguished because Shahnaz Pestonji would not give up her car keys. Ms. Pestonji was stabbed and killed in an unprovoked attack in broad daylight when she was loading groceries into her car last week. The accused allegedly fled the scene, and later, appeared to go live on his Instagram feed, where he discussed the incident and also danced around to rap, flashing an apparent firearm.
Canadian Justice: Murderers Go Free, Immigrants Get a Pass, and Truck Protest Leaders Face Prison Time

MORGAN: The Canadian justice system is in terminal condition
Rukinisha Nkundabatware was stabbed to death by a random stranger on July 9th, 2023, as he tried to ride the LRT in Edmonton. He was 54 and left seven children behind. Ironically, he had escaped the violent, impoverished world of Congo, only to be murdered due to Canada’s pathetic justice system.
Jamal Wheeler killed Nkundabatware in cold blood. He didn’t know his victim nor was he provoked by the victim. Wheeler has a thing with trying to kill people at LRT stations. It’s an established pattern for him.
