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. Peter Ross's sentencing decision in R. v. Planetta, 2021 NSPC 30. Nobody - not the Crown Prosecutor, not the Defence … [Read more...]
