Gumby was supposed to be sentenced today but his lawyer has filed a million hail Mary motions so his sentencing has been deferred to April 24th. His case is in court tomorrow for one of the shameless motions. This is what you call an abuse of process. Money talks and justice walks.
If I understand this correctly, he gets double time credit for time spent in custody before sentencing? A bunch of extra lawyer work/fees buys him that free time on the back end.....3 months now = 6 months later?
ReplyDeleteNo, they finally did away with the two for one pretrial credit. He's trying to get the conviction thrown out so he can get away with murder. Again.
DeleteI hope Pokey bucks him off
DeleteAh but in our original analogy Pokey was Jamie Bacon who has entered Witness Protection. The point is Larry Amero was behind the Surrey Six. Did Jamie Bacon testify against Larry Amero for that? No, he didn't. If he had done that we would have been singing his praises not kicking his a*s.
Delete2 for 1 still exists or should I say exists again. Harper got rid of it but guess who "The Cuban" brought it back, so yes all the time in pre trial means double...years of it not months.
ReplyDeleteI didn't hear it was ever brought back. Do you have a link?
DeleteDennis: It's not back. Inmate who was detained before the law was abolished was still on 1 for 2, but everybody had been judged, they're no detainee left on that situation. On exceptional situation: dirty conditions, multiple overabuse transferts, some irregulations or weird jail conditons, some judge can give 1 for 2. But now it's 1 for 1.5 ? Just to equate the mandatory 2/3 release. Sorry for my english im french canadian
DeleteAh Merci. Bienvenue. Je suis un anglophone stupide : )
Deletesorry I'm techno incompetent, so have no idea how to post a link; however, just google 'Supreme Court restores credit for pre-trial time' 2014. Harper got rid of it in 2009
ReplyDeleteOK so that article states: "In a unanimous 7-0 decision, the high court Friday agreed the law sets out a new starting point, that 1:1 is the general rule. But it said the limit could be exceeded in many cases, rising to the 1.5 -1 maximum, to reflect the fact pre-trial remand time doesn’t count toward parole or early release eligibility."
DeleteThat was the court not Justin Trudeau and it's bat sh*t crazy.
