This is outrageous.
The man who violently stabbed and brutally murdered a father in broad daylight outside a Starbucks in downtown Vancouver has been found guilty not of second-degree murder (for which he was charged) but of merely manslaughter.
A conviction that carries with it no mandatory jail time at all.
The killer, Inderdeep Singh Gosal, could literally be back on the streets in just a matter of months.
This is part of a trend in Canada of judges who rule that stabbing or shooting someone in the face, neck, or chest somehow doesn’t “prove” intent to kill.
If judges are unwilling to use common sense, maybe it’s time for the government to consider new legislation to ensure that they do!
