Cold-blooded murderer, 17, sentenced like a child thanks to Supreme Court.

The light sentence given to a 17 year old for the murder of a taxi driver is enough to make anyone sick.  This happened because of Liberal justice system and the liberal-appointed supreme court judges.

Christopher Jung, a 73-year-old Toronto taxi driver originally from Poland, was “the happiest he’d been in a long time” in October 2021 — the COVID lockdowns had eased, and could finally return to work. He wouldn’t live to see November. On an evening shift Oct. 24, a teen he had driven to Scarborough would reach under the plexiglass divider with his handgun and fire a fatal seven shots into his body.

That teen, known only as I.T., was convicted of second-degree murder by a jury earlier this year, which would normally mean a life sentence and no parole for at least 10 years. But last week, he was handed a youth sentence of four years in jail by Justice Shaun Nakatsuru, to be followed by another three on house arrest.

Why? Because only a few months ago, the Supreme Court of Canada decided to make it next to impossible to sentence even the worst youth offenders as adults — especially when race is raised as an issue.

It would be hard to find a better candidate for an adult sentence than I.T. He was 17 years and five months old when he murdered Jung, and was under three separate weapons prohibitions at that time from prior crimes . He’d been convicted in February 2020 for property crimes, court order breaches, impaired driving, assaulting police and possessing a gun. In August 2020, he was convicted for possessing and transporting a gun. And in September 2021, he was convicted of breaching a court order, possession of stolen property and robbery.  unquote

This could be just another reason why many will see Canada as a hopeless country and might choose separatism.  The Supreme Court is out of touch with reality and is inflicting their bizarre rulings on all Canadians, much like the Liberal Party.  Of course most of the judges are probably liberals appointed by liberals.
