Milwaukee Rapist Cop Ladmarald Cates sentenced to a special place in Hell

Published July 31, 2012 by Christopher di Armani Filed Under: Police Brutality, Police Corruption, Police Misconduct


Back on February 14, 2012 I wrote the following under the title “There is a special place in hell reserved for you, Officer Ladmarald Cates”: When you dial 9-1-1 you expect the police to arrive and help you.  The very last thing you think you’re doing is calling Dial-A-Rapist, yet that’s exactly what happened to a 19-year-old Milwaukee single mom who cannot be identified by … [Read more...]

RCMP Corporal Monty Robinson finally quits in disgrace prior to sentencing hearing

Published July 22, 2012 by Christopher di Armani Filed Under: 25 Reasons To Dump The RCMP, Courts, Police, Police Misconduct, Police Sentencing Double-Standards, RCMP Accountability, RCMP Hall of Shame


RCMP Corporal Monty Robinson has finally done something honourable… if you can call quitting in disgracebefore you’re fired as “honourable”, that is, right before you’re about to be sentenced for obstruction of justice. As regular readers of my columns will already know, Corporal Monty Robinson has been on paid vacation for the past 4 years.  His troubles seemingly started … [Read more...]

RCMP Constable Derrick Holdenried suspended without pay for stealing, but Monty Robinson is still on the payroll???

Published June 20, 2012 by Christopher di Armani Filed Under: Police, Police Misconduct, RCMP Accountability, RCMP Hall of Shame


The RCMP really needs to get its act together when it comes to punishing wrongdoers within its ranks.  The suspension of RCMP Constable Derrick Holdenried for stealing seems outrageous and bizarre when compared to that of killer cop RCMP Corporal Monty Robinson or sexual offender RCMP Sgt Don Ray. Monty Robinson, you will remember, is the guy who ran home to down a couple of … [Read more...]

RCMP Sgt. Don Ray and Donald Bakker: two sexual offenders treated very differently by RCMP Brass

Published June 8, 2012 by Christopher di Armani Filed Under: Police, Police Misconduct, RCMP Accountability, RCMP Hall of Shame, Sexual Predators


Most people, at least here in British Columbia, are familiar with the case of disgraced RCMP Staff Sgt. Don  Ray.  He’s the former head of Edmonton RCMP’s polygraph unit who liked to party and have sex with co-workers in his office.  His sexual misconduct dates back at least as far as 2006, according to news reports. After Staff Sgt. Don Ray was demoted one rank to sergeant … [Read more...]

RCMP Cpl. Monty Robinson’s stunning lack of character

Published June 6, 2012 by Christopher di Armani Filed Under: Police, Police Misconduct, RCMP Accountability, RCMP Hall of Shame


I saw a great response to news that RCMP Corporal Monty Robinson's sentencing date for obstruction of justice charges had been postponed today. It's a letter to the editor of The Delta Optimist that perfectly echos my thoughts on this pathetic excuse for a human being. re: Robinson's sentencing postponed until July, May 30 Monty Robinson's defence that his reaction to … [Read more...]

RCMP Cpl. Monty Robinson sentencing for obstructing justice in Orion Hutchinson’s death delayed again

Published June 4, 2012 by Christopher di Armani Filed Under: Police, Police Brutality, Police Misconduct, RCMP Accountability, RCMP Hall of Shame


Orion Hutchinson was a young man with a bright future until RCMP Corporal Monty Robinson killed him after having 6 drinks at a party.  Now Robinson's much-anticipated sentencing for obstruction of justice in Orion Hutchinson's death will be delayed until July 20, 2012. My sincerest hope is that Monty Robinson will be sentenced to the maximum time possible for his … [Read more...]

RCMP Commissioner Paulson says all the right things about the RCMP’s internal culture of covering up abuses

Published May 26, 2012 by Christopher di Armani Filed Under: Police Misconduct, RCMP Accountability


RCMP Commissioner Robert Paulson is saying all the right things about the RCMP’s internal culture and his desire to overhaul the RCMP’s disciplinary system. Unfortunately that is not a job he can do on his own.  He needs our help. But he’s the commissioner of the RCMP, you say... He’s the top dog... why does he need our help? In order to change the way the RCMP deals … [Read more...]

Constable Lee Douglas, facing theft charge, gets rewarded for his crime with a paid vacation

Published May 25, 2012 by Christopher di Armani Filed Under: Abuse of Police Authority, Abuse of Trust, Police, Police Misconduct, RCMP Hall of Shame


Constable Lee Douglas must be thinking it’s great to be a cop in Oshawa, Ontario… He [allegedly] broke the law and is now being rewarded for his thievery with a paid vacation.  What other career gives benefits like that? Any normal business would fire an employee for theft or at least make it clear they will resign or face criminal charges, but not police forces in … [Read more...]

Staff Sgt. Don Ray is the latest in a long line of high-ranking RCMP members to be reprimanded for sexual misconduct on the job. While stationed in Edmonton and in charge of the RCMP polygraph unit Staff Sgt. Don Ray regularly held parties, got subordinates drunk, made sexual advances and had sex in RCMP offices. He has since been transferred to British Columbia. An … [Read more...]

Sometimes things happen. Everyone forgets a bag now and then. It happens to even the most diligent person. But when you are a serving member of the RCMP and your carry bag contains your loaded service pistol... well... there's going to be a bit of a problem, isn't there? Now I commend the unnamed RCMP member for immediately notifying his superiors of his screwup. I actually … [Read more...]

In what is becoming a trend across Canada, judges are having less and less patience with police forces who illegally search a person’s vehicle, residence or person.  The latest case involves two people who [allegedly] have known gang affiliations in Burnaby, BC. Damion Ryan and Theresa Latham faced a total of 30 gun charges after police searched their home after responding … [Read more...]

Castle Doctrine Rebounds in Indiana after stupid Indiana State Supreme Court ruling

Published March 14, 2012 by Christopher di Armani Filed Under: Abuse of Police Authority, Constitutional Violations, Courts, Guns, Justice System Abuses, Police Misconduct, Property Rights, Warrantless Searches


The Indiana State Supreme Court made a ridiculous ruling last year in Barnes v. State (May 12, 2011).  That decision said that Indiana state residents had no right to obstruct illegal police invasions of their homes. Folks who actually comprehend the Rights and Freedoms declared in the Magna Carta were up in arms (pun intended) over the ruling that essentially overturned … [Read more...]

Hypocrisy: When the law is applied differently based on the job description of the violator

Published March 2, 2012 by Christopher di Armani Filed Under: Police Misconduct, Police Sentencing Double-Standards


A mere citizen would be facing a myriad of criminal charges, but that's to be expected in the New Canada, where Justice and Criminality are determined not by your actions, but by your job title. Take the case of Victoria Police Chief Jamie Graham.  Chief Graham left his loaded service pistol under the front seat of his police car. Any mere citizen would be, as I said, … [Read more...]

Can you imagine if you or I left a loaded handgun under the front seat of our vehicle and someone else found it?  Here's roughly what would transpire next: 1. SWAT would be called in to serve a "high risk warrant", kick in our front door, arrest us, seize anything and everything even remotely related to firearms, and parade us and our personal property before the media to … [Read more...]

When you dial 9-1-1 you expect the police to arrive and help you.  The very last thing you think you’re doing is calling Dial-A-Rapist, yet that’s exactly what happened to a 19-year-old Milwaukee single mom who cannot be identified by law as a victim of sex crimes. Within minutes of her 9-1-1 call, a police cruiser arrived with two police officers inside it.  The first took … [Read more...]

Alberta Sheriff Thomas Bounds: Taking Insensitivity to an All-New Low

Published January 27, 2012 by Christopher di Armani Filed Under: Abuse of Police Authority, Bureaucrat’s Rule #1, Police Misconduct


Thomas Bounds is a sheriff with the Alberta Sheriff’s Service.  He requires, at a bare minimum, a severe reprimand and retraining to learn how to act like a human being, since he clearly has no clue at the moment.  For his blatantly abusive and potentially life-threatening treatment of Bill Berry, a 52-year-old deaf and mute cancer survivor, Sheriff Thomas Bounds should really … [Read more...]
