Patrick Dombroskie and the Ontario Glove Factory Murders

This is part of my ongoing series on Canadian Mass Murders.   On February 3, 1992, 28-year-old Patrick Dombroskie grabbed his hunting rifle, drove to the Ontario Glove Factory  where he'd been suspended from work the previous week, and murdered three people. Then he drove directly to the nearest police station in Cambridge and turned himself in. It would have … [Read more...]

Sarah Beam: So Terrified of COVID-19 She Locked Her Own Son in the Trunk of her Car

We are far too used to stories of man's inhumanity to man - especially as the COVID lockdowns and mandates continue - but even in these trying times I'm still shocked by the level of human depravity exhibited by otherwise rational and compassionate people. Such is the terrible, manipulative and coercive nature of fear. On January 3, 2022, Sarah Hadassah Beam, a … [Read more...]

Ex-RCMP Murderer Keith Gregory Wiens Denied Day Parole

I'm thrilled to report ex-RCMP Corporal Keith Gregory Wiens was denied unsupervised day parole. This is great news as this is a man who should rot in prison until the day he dies. (Maybe even the day after.) Lynn Kalmring's family can breathe a sigh of relief this time, but every time Wiens applies for parole it must be extraordinarily challenging, emotionally. In 2019, … [Read more...]

One of my longstanding pet peeves is  sentencing double-standards applied to police officers who break the law, so while my blood pressure rose briefly when I first came across this case, ultimately, it dropped once I read the details and agreed with Judge A.

The Nigerian Army, a land force of roughly 160,000 troops, recently dismissed 3,040 of those troops for crimes ranging from desertion and drunken and disorderly to rape and even murder.
