Good. And trying to pretend Autism had anything to do with this murder spree is something I'd expect of an incel.

Have they never heard of hookers?

He'll have plenty of time to think about hookers. I wonder if he'll get the max... Life with Parole in 250 years.

Good.

Though I wonder why the ruling is 83 pages long? Does it really require that much legal justification to say he's guilty and this his claim of "Autism made me do it" is BS?

Judges like to be thorough when it comes to cases like this. He likely wants to be sure that no one else can use this as a defence, without being able to jump some pretty big hurdles.

If he's been found not guilty for that reason, we'd have to refuse driver licenses to anybody with autism... no gun licenses either.

This is a good verdict. It suppresses a shitstorm that would have occurred if the justice had fallen for the mental illness nonsense. Unfortunately it now enters the traditional territory of far too many verdicts & sentences in Canada, in that the cycle of endless appeals starts where this POS could end up free one day because another justice somewhere along the line voids the verdict because the original trial justice placed a comma in the wrong place in his statement.

Criminals are found guilty just as often in Canada as they are anywhere else in the Western countries. Our problem lies in that appeals succeed too often because the judges are given too far a latitude that result in sentences being overturned. Or in really bad crimes resulting in too soft sentencing.

With luck, he'll be a hooker when his cellmate starts whoring him out for cigarettes.

Now you are just teasing us.

Plus side, he'll no longer be incel. Although he might realize it wasn't so bad. Sex in prison is like sex in High School, the sex want; you don't get. The sex you get; you don't want.

Note: may have gone too far. But I will not apologise for art.

Russel Williams, Paul Bernardo and Luka Magnota will appreciate the new meat.
