Graham James, the junior coach convicted of sexually abusing his players in a case that rocked the hockey world from house leagues to the NHL, has been pardoned by the National Parole Board, The Canadian Press has learned.
This so-called expert Dion, needs to be fired immediately. His main responsibility as a parole board member is to protect society. He has not done his job.
I understand why we give pardons. People make mistakes. When those are relatively minor mistakes and the offender has demonstrated genuine learning from that mistake, sure, they should be given a fresh start. But there should NEVER be pardons granted for violent offences or sex offences....NEVER.
Toews said he was surprised to learn that James, a former junior hockey coach, was granted a pardon in 2007 for sexual assaults against two teens...
Why are we only hearing about this three years later?
According to government records, James was one of 14,748 Canadians given a pardon in 2006-07, while 103 people were refused.
What the hell? WTF are the idiots at the parole board being paid for? We can hire a frickin' monkey to do their jobs at 1/10 their salary. Don't they have a brain cell that they can share amongst themselves to realize that what they're doing is not a good idea?
He'd be wise to make sure they stay that way.
This is unbelievable. Absof***inglutely unbelievable.
