they weren't given a choice in the matter, but this guy made his deision and realised, with whatever was going on in his mind, he wasn't going to win. still i say, just killing himself would have been the easy way out, but getting caught, he'll have to spend the rest of his life living with what he did. i'm not that cynical on the canadian justice system, even though i do know what it's like when justice doesn't come through for a close friend/loved one of mine being taken from me and nothing coming out of it. i don't hold grudges, i don't act "edgy" in regards to the government in how its run. "that's life"
