> Police say Greer had stolen a Ford F-350, crashed into a minivan carrying the family just south of Cold Lake, and then fled in another car stolen from the scene. At the time of that crash, Greer was on bail.
> Greer, 34, was what RCMP called a prolific offender who was **on bail for breaching a probation order** at the time of the crash that killed Lilith.

I just don’t understand the rationality behind decisions like this. The dude breaches a probation order. So you know he doesn’t give a fuck to adhere to the terms of his original release and yet some shitbag judge goes ahead and releases him again on the new charges.
This seems to go back this entire ideology of sociologists and criminologists that says „everybody can be rehabilitated and we don’t care how many innocent lives it takes, we’ll prove it“.
Just keep giving him parole and letting him destroy more families.
>Bail reform isn’t necessarily the panacea, but in this case, you have a person who not only is on bail, but also has several previous convictions, and one of the things they were on bail for was breaching parole or probation,” he told CTV News Edmonton in an interview Thursday.
I’m very liberal on many issues. Impaired driving laws should be changed. I hear about people getting 5-10 charges and still driving. How is that possible/allowed?!
I would like to see a license revoked for life after x amount of charges. No more than 3 imo.
Edit: for those coming at me, yes, also jail time no matter what. 3 times should be enough to say – hey, this person isn’t going to change, and is eventually going to kill someone.
The Ministry of transportation and the infractions involve with impaired driving are completely broken. It should be you do it once shame on you. You do it twice driving should never be something you can do again. In this instance, this individual obviously didn’t care about that and stole a vehicle, but if you’re gonna violate probation, you shouldn’t even have been let out in the first place. I have seen people get worse convictions for tax fraud.
This country is a sad joke… its gone so far backwards I’m not sure if it can ever be fixed. The „justice“ system cares more about the criminals than victims that is blatantly obvious. This type of shit just keeps happening over and over and over again. I think the experiment failed, its time to stop being so weak on crime.
Governments and the judiciary in general have decided that the rights of the accused – which includes the obviously guilty – trump society’s reasonable expectation of safety.
And they don’t seem interested in doing anything else about it.
I’m surprised nobody has successfully argued that incarceration is cruel and unusual punishment yet.
Why even have a judge? Why even have this a crime? There is a cost to this process and the outcome is the same as if no charges were laid. System is broken.
It’s simple and I don’t even think we need bail reform. You want Judges to actually care about communities and victims? Just hold them accountable, Easy to release everyone and not care when you can never be questioned about it when they go out and re-offend, often with violence.
God bless Liberal justice
This country just doesn’t take drunk driving seriously. We let people get away with it over and over and then shit like this happens.
They need to up the punishment for drunk driving all across the board. First time caught doing it should be a six month license suspension, not a week.
And every case where a death occurs should result in jail time. A year or longer. Toss out the idea of these weak sentences. They do nothing to deter the offenders, and cost innocent people their lives.
People knock the US all the time for having a high prison population while bemoaning the early release and light sentences of criminals in Canada.
I am curious of the number of deaths caused this or last year from individuals on bail or parole.
Maybe its time to make the judges who release these people accountable.
