The Crown prosecution service is trying to get one Robert Parkers Somers incarerated for an "indeterminite period" subject to review by the parole board.
"What was striking, however, was his gross minimization of his criminal behaviour," says the report [from a forensic psychiatrist prepared in 2005]. "In particular, his violence towards his intimate partners, even in the face of repeated criminal charges and convictions, including the predicate offense."He was recently convicted of aggravated assault against another girlfriend.
In 1989, Somers was convicted of attempted murder. On his way home from a night of drinking, he stabbed a woman, for which he got a 4 1/2-year sentence.
I didn't know that Canada had its act together this much. They have so many of the touch-feely laws I usually associate with the UK, I didn't think that they could take this kind of action. (The reporter tries to get us to feel sorry for the mutant by talking about his abused childhood. Your childhood may not have been perfect, but it's over.)
I hope they get this animal off the streets for a good long time.
