'I'm the victim and I'm in shackles': Edmonton woman jailed while testifying against her attacker

 

On a Monday afternoon in June 2015, Angela Cardinal was led into an Edmonton courtroom handcuffed and in leg shackles. Metallic rattling echoed as a sheriff escorted the 28-year-old to the witness stand.
She was not the accused, but rather a victim — called to testify at a preliminary hearing after she was savagely attacked and sexually assaulted by a notorious sexual predator.

Ganley said she has already formed a special committee to look at the case to review policies,...

---- ---- ----
Confinement without consent is kidnapping. (assuming she comitted no crime, which in this case, they openly acknowledge is the case)

The penalty for kidnapping is (up to) Life in Prison.
Every cop, every judge , every social worker who particiapted in this act of kidnapping should be in jail.
But no , they're going to hold a committee...they're going to look at policy.No one is to be punished.

Alberta is Canada's "Ferguson, Missouri" where they do as they please and give you the finger if you don't like it. These people should all be rounded up and tossed in jail , but instead, they'll just do it again. and again , and again , and again. I mean why not ? All that ever happens is someone shakes a finger at you , gives you a wink , and says "Play Nice Now"

Same thing happened in Toronto , Ontario. Hundreds of people rounded up and arrested by the cops, who they knew had done no crime. Eventually , many years later, the cheif police officer got a 30 day fine and that was it.  Hell , why not do it again and again ?

I'm sorry. This is canada. Your constitutional rights are merely optional suggestions.

UPDATE : Turns out she was stoned in court from abusing drugs the night before, and they put her in jail to try and dry her out so she could testify. But she was stoned there as well.

Man ...some people !
