"Justice Satanove said she agreed with the joint submission by the Crown and defence that a conditional sentence is “appropriate” and meets the need for denunciation and deterrence"
What a JOKE. Why would the Crown have agreed to this? Disgusting.
On the good news front, recent amendments to the criminal code prevent conditional sentences (house arrest) in cases where seriously bodily harm or death occurs. At least this won't be able to happen again in the future.

Will there ever be a day that goes by where the legal system stops screwing over the law-abiding public? This is out of control.
