Bragg has seriously exposed the core of real immoral prosecution practices that really have to stop. Let’s say you made one phone call and defrauded someone out of $100,000. You will be charged with (1) count of wire fraud. However, let’s say you had to call the person 34 times to get the same $100,000. The prosecutor will then charge you with 34 counts of wire fraud. Now let’s say the penalty is 5 years in prison. So if you called 34 times for the same amount of money, the judge could then sentence you to 170 years claiming it is his “discretion” to run them all consecutively.
Members of the Ontario Legislative Assembly are pushing a bill that would create ‘2SLGBTQI+ Community Safety Zones’ where “offensive remarks” about gay people would be prohibited within 100 meters and could lead to a fine of up to $25,000.
