CBC is reporting that "A B.C. Supreme Court judge has rejected an application by one of the Surrey Six killers to stay the convictions against him. Nearly 20 years after a gangland slaying that shocked the province, Justice Martha Devlin said Thursday that allegations of abuse of process levelled by Cody Haevischer against police and corrections officials did not rise to the level that would have seen her stay the case against him. The judge's decision resulted in six convictions for murder and one count of conspiracy to commit murder against Haevischer being officially entered into the judicial record — meaning the gangster must serve a life sentence for his crimes."
That decision was just posted on the Supreme court website along with another decision about contempt of court for refusing to answer certain questions when cross examined. For contempt of court he was sentenced to two years to be served concurrently with his life sentence for murder which means zero extra time served. The stay of proceedings decision was a delicate balancing act as the RCMP misconduct in that case was extreme.
Yet to allow the Surrey Six murderers off because of the police misconduct would not have been in the public interest. Jamie Bacon filed a separate claim and won only to have the decision overturned on appeal. Then they let Jamie Bacon in witness protection for basically doing nothing. IHIT and the Surrey RCMP screwed up the Surrey Six investigation in every way possible.
It mentions after Jamie Bacon tried to kill person X, person x started cooperating with the police. He didn't realize that included letting his GF sleep with the police just like they slept with Jamie Bacon's GF. The original person x became person y after the second person x started cooperating.
Let's not forget the police made an audio of Jamie Bacon trying to convince Mathew Johnson, one of his former body guards, to join him in witness protection and start cooperating with the police. Shortly after that Mathew Johnston mysteriously died of cancer. Why would Jamie Bacon put his life and his family's life at risk trying to recruit Mathew Johnston into Witness protection knowing that he was dying of cancer. He would not. There was no advanced warning of Mathew Johnston's diagnosis like there was for Sophon Sek.
Jamie Bacon ordered the Surrey Six. Letting him off was obscene.
