I support this petition. These teens can run around free and their friends say they don't deserve to be locked up - well Stefan doesn't deserve to be 6 feet under!!!!!
I support this petition. These individuals are clearly a menace to the public. They have already murdered one person. How many more do they have to murder before the judicial system deems that society's rights outweigh the offender's?
Not only do I support this petition, but I feel the parents of any teenager that does an adult crime should be the one's held accountalbe for the their teens actions and after the third time, I feel the teen or teens should be held accountable for his/her acations by doing six to seven years in junivinile type jail for the young offenders and then either pay a hefty fine and then see a probation officer for a year after they get out. In other words we have to start sending a message to our Govermnent, Federally and Provincially that just because our teens are under age, they feel they can do an adult crime and not be punished for their adult crime and get away with it. this should stop and the teens of our society should be taught that you do the adult crime, you get some type of adult punishment and it would be left up to our court system, whether it be a big punishment or a small punishment. In other words for God's sake, stop babying the teens of today and start making them accountable for their actions.
I support this petition. Please, do what is right. It just does not make sence that they are out on the streets. We know they are guilty!. Why do they have to be out on bail when they have kill somebody..
I support this petition. Those kids, no matter how old, should suffer for what they did. This is murder, if we let all 4 get away then how will anyone else learn that they are responsible for their actions.
I support this petition.I am totally amazed at our justice system, and how they could let these criminals out after the crime that they are accused of especially the one blowing kisses, he should join the big boys in the Max,and maybe see how funny that is. To the family and friends of Stevan, please give them some justice for their loss.
I support this petition. As a community we need to stand together and take control of our youth. We have allowed to become the way they are due to the leniency of the young offenders act. We needto take control and make them accountable for their actions.
I feel these teens need to stay locked up until their trial. They are loose cannons with no parent guidance. I feel very unsafe not knowing what they look like. And how can bus driver control them not entering a city bus if they don't know what they look like. Allowing these boys who are guilty to run the streets paints a negative veiw of our justice system.
No one has the right to beat another person to death. But, everyone has the right to a fair trial. This does not, however mean that dangerous suspects should be freed until their appointed court date. Hurt us once shame on you, hurt us twice shame on us.
I support this petition.
These Kids need to be responsible for what they did, and they should be made to stay behind bars. They gave up their freedom the day they took an innocent mans life.
I support this petition. All young people in the country need to know there are serious consequences for serious crimes. There are too many crimes being committed by young people who believe they can get away with anything.
Unbelievable to say the least! I wonder what the judge's decision would be if it were his son who was beaten to death by 4 punks. What a nice example we(Canada)have shown to other possible violent offenders and the rest of world(as they laugh at us). It is a shame, embarrassment! Let us see some justice.
I support this petition.Youth keep getting more and more violent.hmm I wonder why, maybe its because there is no such thing as a consequence for our actions anymore.
I support this petition. The justice system seems to be non existent. It's time these kids realize that there are consiquences for their actions other than a little slap on the wrist. The young offender law is a joke and should be an embarrasment to our court system.
I support this petition.--These boys should await trial in jail..what are we as a society showing other young offenders by letting these 4 boys out! 4 so called nice, well liked, good teenagers who beat a man to death to NOT deserve FREEDOM!
The Young Offenders Act has seemingly given today's youth a place to seek refuge from being held accountable for their actions. Let's do something to help encourage respect for law, respect for community and respect for thyself.
I support this petition.
I completely support this petition. Murder is a crime punishable by law. If these individuals are big enough to cross the street by themselves, they are big enough to know the difference between right and wrong. They need to be punished.
