G.M., whose identity is protected to preserve the privacy of his victim, was sentenced last month to three months of house arrest after a jury found him guilty of assault, according to reasons for sentence posted online Friday.

It says G.M. punched his ex-wife in the head, neck, shoulders and lower back, and knocked her head against some stairs, all in full view of their five-year-old daughter, on Sept. 16, 2019.

The 43-year-old was also found guilty in 2011 of assaulting a previous partner, but because he received a conditional discharge, the conviction does not appear on his criminal record, B.C. Supreme Court Justice Geoffrey Gomery noted.
Beats his wife to the point she's got permanent injuries and does it in front of their kid, and this is the second time. But no jail time.

And justin trudeau wants to claim this country isn't broken.

What did she do to him that reduced his sentence?
Every inch of the decision and the reasoning is in the link in the article dude. here it is again in case you missed it.


the judge was more concerned about the possibility he might be deported if he were jailed for more than 6 months. She didn't do anything - he had a hissy fit when he couldn't find his phone.

Wow, three whole months of house arrest for assault and battery, for a repeat offender. Oh, but he might get deported if he gets a tougher sentence so it's better that we have to put up with is shit instead. How fucking progressive.

Well , you do not want him to NOT vote Liberal, so do what Just-in Trudeau says and let him off with no sentence.
sadly the libs actually promote this concept amongst criminals. "If you don't vote liberal the CPC will pass all kinds of more strict laws and you'll spend more time in jail".

Yeah, I have a real problem with PRs. Either get your citizenship or get the fuck out.
Well even if you don't mind PR's, i'm sorry but that's NOT a reason not to give someone a proper sentance! Oh - he's a PR so because there's a law that says he might get deported we refuse to enforce this law he's already broken because that would be cruel. FFS- people shouldn't get favoritism just because they're NOT citizens!

Tough choice. Vote Conservative and you'll probably see longer sentences.
Vote Liberal and you might want to go to jail where you can at least get 3 hots and cot with a roof over your head instead of being homeless.

3 hots and a cot are what hospitals are for. Any pro homeless knows that :)

Gotta admit, never seen a homeless person intentionally injure/wound themselves so they can eat shitty hospital food. But lots of them commit small, minor crimes around Thanksgiving or Christmas in the hopes of spending a few days in jail. Although I don't know if that gig still pays off for them nowadays.

It is constant here. My medical friends speak of it often. They generally don't "Injure" themselves in the sense of stabbing themselves in the leg or anything but it's not hard to fake symptoms for something that needs a overnight or three, and that's without just hyping up drug related issues.

No point committing small crimes here - they don't lock people up for that. Hell they don't lock them up for fairly serious crimes any more.

Do you support it against men?
I don't support either but i kind of feel Techumseh might. A lot of leftie types are fine with it. But their support of violence against women was a surprise.

Oh - wait, did you think you were being clever? :LOL: :LOL: :LOL: LOL - well there you go anyway :)
