Sheesh. I lived in Calgary for a couple of years in the 80s. I didn’t know it had gotten this messed up. But then, OJ Simpson played golf all over the USA for 13 years after he cut the throats of two people. So, I guess legal systems are just messed up everywhere.
It is a joke to allow NCR as a legal defense. NCR is not a defense, it is a mitigating circumstance. The question of guilt or innocense is just this: Did this person do this crime? Yes or no. The punishment phase of the trial can certainly take into account NCR, but the sombich is still guilty of the crime, isn’t he?
