Never let it be said...

...the CBC isn't all about victims rights...
The lawyer for a repeat sex offender who returned to Iqaluit last week said RCMP were wrong to warn the public about her client's release from prison.
And, who exactly, is our "victim du jour?"
Nunavut RCMP made the rare move Friday of issuing a public notice about Roonie Iqalukjuaq, 33, who recently completed a three-year, nine-month prison sentence for sexual assault, aggravated assault and other offences.

The court heard Friday that Iqalukjuaq's criminal record includes several violent offences and four breaches of court-imposed conditions.
Thank you, oh-wonderful-mother-corp.
