Adam and Paul delve into two parole board decisions, threatened school shootings, and the efforts being made to clear the names of Toronto Police officers who were found to by lying by a judge and jury.
Cameron Ortis, the former head of RCMP Intelligence, was granted parole soon after starting what was reported as a 14 year sentence. The parole board decision indirectly calls into question the trial decision (and perhaps even the decision to prosecute Ortis).
The other parole decision was a denial of parole for Lindsay Souvannarath, who was convicted of planning a mass shooting at the Halifax Shopping Centre. Podcast host Jordan Bonaparte was referenced in the decision, and was part of the parole board's critique of Souvannarath, for recording podcasts with her while she was in jail, and for transferring money to her from an American who is on Canada's terrorist list.
Also covered, two teens arrested in Nova Scotia and Manitoba for threatening to effect school shootings, Premier Doug Ford and the Chief of the Toronto Police are calling for a judicial apology after a report contradicts findings of a judge and jury trial on the killing of an officer, and Brian Sauve is running to remain head of the RCMP union.
