Soooo, why is he out exactly??

MCKAY is subject to many court ordered conditions including:

  • To keep the peace and be of good behavior

  • Not to consume or possess any alcohol or controlled substances

  • Attend and participate in assessments and counseling as directed by a Probation Officer

BUT… “his whereabouts is currently unknown.” That’s very reassuring.

I sure like the idea of this Parasite’s photo being on here but the next best step is have it around town for everyone to see and be aware . There are far too many of these kinds of scum running around this community already .

I’m just curious: does anyone know what his jail sentence was, and/or how long he actually served?

#7

wow he lasted a whole 3 days. Sounds rehabilitated to me.

#8

He appeared in court this afternoon and yes, he has been released.

I was very glad to see that Pineridge Elementary circulated his photo and particulars in a newsletter today.  I hope every other school did the same.

#10

Yep, every school did, smartass:-)

#11

Yeah there you go again , another smooth move on behalf of the courts , how the f*^k can we win . Diddlers should be used for science projects one piece at a time . At least we now know what it looks like . What is the courts reseason for the release , Charter of Rights or is it that he is just pleading insanity because he is .

#12

I tried to do a search on Canlii

canlii.org

But I can’t find him

#13

Agreed.  I also find it hard to understand why this freak is in our town.  If this guy is so dangerous why is is free to wander the streets?  Perhaps he got paroled because he behaved himself in prison.  Sheesh. :confused:

#14

plastinate the punk !

It was probably just a simple PTA that got him released.

#16

The notice didn’t say anything about him being paroled.  It just said that he had been released.  It’s entirely possible that he’d served the full term of his sentence and they had to let him go.

#17

Probably he served his full time, but didn’t show much in the way of rehabilitation. Most likely he refused the required attendance at counselling sessions or exhibited less than forward progress in his sessions.

That would be why the notice would be made public. If at the time of release he is still considered a risk to society they issue these public warnings.

Not sure why he would come here, since he’s not exactly going to blend into a small community like he would in a larger place. 

#18

If someone served a full sentence, would there still be conditions on release?

#19

For offences like that… I sure as hell hope so.  His sentence was probably less than 2 years, and hasn’t learned a damn thing while away.

#20

I think that if they haven’t shown proper dedication to the program they were involved with in prision. then yes they end up with conditions.

Perhaps our resident jailer could offer up some guidelines as to the law in general in these situations… :wink:
