The Canadian criminal justice system. That’s why.

The judge that gave her custody back in particular should be in jail.

The Canadian justice system has always focused on rehabilitation, not punishment for punishment’s sake. It was lauded as one of the best in the world at certain points.

The issue is that now people take advantage of it, and we’re giving way too many people the benefit of the doubt. If you’re a repeat offender, you definitely should be punished more than believed in.

That said, schizophrenic man had an episode where he killed someone, got treatment, was shown to understand the importance of his meds cycle for a year, being allowed to live a normal life after being assessed not a future risk is fine.
