The Vancouver Province is reporting that Nanaimo Hells Angel Robert Widdifield has been convicted in B.C. Supreme Court of extortion and theft over $5,000. The charges had been stayed by the court over delays but the crown appealed the ruling because they weren't responsible for the delays and he was finally convicted. This is a step forward. Like I said before, the right to a speedy trial is a charter right but that doesn't mean you get off if you are responsible for the delays.
CBC is reporting that there was a police indictment in Port Moody. The suspect attacked a woman and stole her car around 10:30 AM. 8:00 PM he showed up at her home and pulled a gun on her father who was able to fight him off. The police arrived before the suspect caught up with him and was going to shoot him. This time, the police saved the day.
