Worst title ever.

Now watch some idiot try to get this guy's medical licence reinstated, too.

His lawyer already said it's the next step.

How can he be released when an appeal is filed?

[Zipperfish]

Doctor Who doesn't have any kids.

I followed this case when it was going through the courts. He killed his kids because his wife was cheating on him. I was amazed, stunned and even lost sleep after learning that a not guilty verdict was rendered for all murder charges. If this fellow was residing in the southern U.S. he would have gotten the death penalty, which he deserved. I simply cannot think of a worst crime than the murder of innocent children, especially his own kids. It's unfathomable.

Makes me wonder what the heck is happening with our society when a crime of this magnitude goes unpunished. We may as well just pack our bags and go straight to hell right now. After a verdict of this nature, we deserve it. Lord help us all.

I agree Jughead.

I've said it before (and not long ago after another bullshit decision)... our system is consistently pathetic when it comes to these cases. Too many people get away with murder, literally, and serve so little time behind bars, if any, that when they get released the case they were "punished" for is still fresh in our memory.

Well, there is hope though for change... maybe

$1:

The Conservatives announced proposed amendments to the Criminal Code in November, including plans to make it more difficult for mentally ill offenders found not criminally responsible to be released from custody.

They plan to introduce a bill in the House of Commons next year that would make public safety the paramount factor for review boards who decide when an offender can be released.

So sometime in 2013 we may see a step forward in getting badly needed, and long overdue amendments done to the Code.

In the meantime... it's seemingly still open season for innocent people who's killers have "circumstances".

The only way this will turn out right is if he accidentally steps out in front of a bus upon release.

You just know this guy laughed himself to sleep each night in the wacko ward.

Note to his wife. If he shows up at your house be sure to stab him to death and claim self defense. Who the hell would not believe you?

[Brenda]

It's not just Canada's system... In my hometown, a guy who owns a pub woke up in the middle of the night one night, walked into the bar area of the pub to make a cup of tea (the bar is attached to the house, I believe they live upstairs), and felt his hairs in his neck rise. He turns around, and a guy is standing in his bar, trying to get to the register. The owner smacks the guy upside the head with the first thing he got his hands on, which was a bottle of booze. He broke the burglars skull, and the guy ended up in the hospital. Guess who has a court case coming up next week?
Exactly. The owner is charged with manslaughter.

You gotta be fucking kidding me ! Less than 4 years. I think the jury who came up with the not guilty plea also needs to be put behind bars.

That's Canada's CJS ...pity the killer, fuck the victims

He's never been behind bars. He was in a mental institution.

I am still wondering how he can be released while an appeal is still pending tho.

[martin14]

4 years.

Guess we can figure out when we will see Vince out and about again..

[ShepherdsDog]

...unless McKay's family sees him first.
