Why would anyone be compensated because their child got murdered? Compensated by whom? Sue the murderer.
Although it is easy for me to say...
I agree. But that doesn't mean that traumatized people should be denied existing services.
I didn't read the whole "article" (I read the newspaper clipping tho) and I still do not understand who should compensate them, and what for.
If they ended up with a mental illness, that can be diagnosed by a psychologist/psychiatrist, and there are services out there they can talk to. Even in the small town where I live there is free counseling...
Free councelling in Toronto? not a chance.
