If you are sure the accused is guilty you must convict, but if you have doubt -- or even think someone "is probably guilty" but are not quite certain -- you must acquit, Horkins said.

The Crown faces a difficult bar of proof to meet, the judge acknowledged. Because there's no "smoking gun," no physical evidence that the prosecution can point to in order to support the witnesses.It's over...

Judd claims supervisors at the Mexican and Canadian borders have told agents not to bother turning other immigrants over to Immigration and Customs Enforcement since "they won't be deported anyway."
Judd said anyone who claims they've been living in the U.S. continuously from prior to 2014 is not even being turned over to ICE and given a “Notice to Appear” in court.

The civilian watchdog says it cannot reveal whether Wettlaufer was armed because the investigation is ongoing. The vital piece of information may not be provided until the probe is completed, a process that typically takes several months, or up to a year.UPDATE: Here's a crazy thought... let's talk to somebody who isn't related to the deceased...
-- "Sources have told CP24 that the man was armed with a handgun when he was shot. He was rushed to hospital, where he was later pronounced dead." --UPDATE2: The other side of the story
-- "Toronto police officers from the force’s tactical unit negotiated with Alex Wettlaufer for at least 15 minutes before firing their weapons, killing the young man who a police source says was armed with either a real or replica gun.And it appears as though he may not have been eligible to enlist in the military after all...
Court documents show Wettlaufer was facing three criminal charges at the time of his death, dating back to an October 2014 incident. Alongside three other accused, Wettlaufer faced one of robbery for allegedly stealing a cellphone and one count of assault causing bodily harm, for allegedly attacking two people..Wonder how the family feels about being manipulated by the media now?
Wettlaufer alone was charged with the unauthorized possession of a knife that opens through the use of centrifugal force — a weapon that requires a licence.
All of the charges against Wettlaufer were before the court at the time of his death." --

"The jurors also saw 4 1/2 minutes of video Barrett secretly recorded of Andrews nude in her hotel room on Sept. 4, 2008, while she prepared for a Thursday night Vanderbilt University football game."Remember... one man's Peeping Tom is another man's Paul Revere.
Gawker founder Denton “wants people to know the truth. The simple unvarnished truth.”No wonder the criminal justice system barely functions.

The death was raised at Monday’s sitting of the Senate National Security and Defence Committee, where Canadian Security Intelligence Service director Michel Coulombe testified about the 180 extremists who had left Canada to take part in terrorism.Yup... this guy's about as Canadian as a severed head.

MacNaughton was Ontario co-chairman of Trudeau’s election campaign. He also worked in Dalton McGuinty’s Liberal government with many senior party members, including the prime minister’s chief of staff, Katie Telford, and principal secretary, Gerald Butts. He was Telford’s former employer at StrategyCorp, a Toronto-based lobbying firm.Looks like all the usual Libranos are ridin' the Pony real hard.

Mohamed is an unaccompanied minor fleeing a brutal war and requesting asylum in our country. Canada responded by forcing him into a small room and shutting the door. He was allowed out for less than an hour each day to play basketball alone in the snow.I guess thats what passes for Justin justice when the cameras aren't rolling...
The CBSA is now seeking to deport him.
A few weeks earlier, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau was at Toronto’s main airport, personally greeting the first planeload of refugees.I don't get it. Prime Minister Care Bear fast-tracked 25,000 Syrian refugees and prior to that championed the cause of Omar Khadr, a confessed terrorist & murderer, but this kid gets the full "Count of Monte Cristo" treatment?

TORONTO—The leader of an al-Qaida-inspired plot to explode truck bombs in downtown Toronto during the morning rush hour will have his Canadian citizenship reinstated under legislation introduced by the Liberals on Thursday.So, let's toss an unaccompanied minor into the hole... while playing kissy-face with convicted terrorists? How does that make an iota of sense?

Higgins’s resignation came 10 days after a video circulated online through the Acadiana, La., ABC affiliate KATC in which he called for wanted members of the Gremlins gang to turn themselves in.It's a brave new Care Bear world.
Addressing the suspected criminals, Higgins called the alleged gang-members “thugs,” “heathens,” and “animals.”

Last month National Border Patrol Council President Brandon Judd testified that his agents have been told not to bother arresting illegal immigrants, meaning the migrants never get into the criminal justice system, and the administration’s numbers don’t look so bad.**********
Mr. Judd said illegal immigrants without serious criminal convictions have learned that by claiming they came before 2014 — without even needing to show proof — they can be released immediately.
Customs and Border Protection Commission R. Gil Kerlikowske told Border Patrol agents who object to President Obama’s amnesty policies that it’s time to “look for another job.” Mr. Kerlikowske even appeared to acknowledge problems with the demoralized workforce.
Just minutes before he told agents to quit, he had told the committee that he’s having trouble filling the number of slots Congress has funded.

WESLACO – The federal government will have fewer agents patrolling the border by next fiscal year.No wonder people are turning to Trump.
Under the proposed budget released by the Department of Homeland Security, the agency is budgeting for 300 fewer agents in 2017 than they did for this fiscal year.

TORONTO - Toronto Police are hunting two suspects after the body of a man who had been shot was discovered in a BMW.Lest you imagine the violence was confined to Toronto's west end...
Bryan Agyei, 22, of Brampton, was pronounced dead after officers were called to Scarlettwoods Court, in the Scarlett Rd.-Eglinton Ave. W., area, around 11:30 p.m. Sunday.
Officers arrived on scene near St. Clair Avenue and Pharmacy Avenue around 1:15 p.m. on Saturday.Remember back when you were a kid... and bodies were dropping all around you? Yeah, me neither.
Shafaq Joya, 30, of Toronto, will appear in court on Monday.
Shocking numbers released by Toronto police show 2016 is off to a violent start.**********
The number of shootings in January has doubled what they were at the same time last year, and are nearly three times higher than in the first month of 2013.
UPDATE: The body count grows
Three murdered in four days...
The 29-year-old had grabbed a snack before his night shift at the local Wal-Mart. Around 10 p.m. he stepped outside, where two men were waiting for him. He was putting on a pair of headphones when the fatal bullet struck the back of his head.Seriously... get out while you still can.
