HUNTER: For criminals in Canada, life's just breachy keen

Article content

You again!

Go on! Go home or to whichever rock you crawled out from under.

That appears to be the way Canada’s bail system works. Consequences are, of course, a dirty word and filthier idea here.

Most criminals, while they may be stupid, are wise to the ways of a system that is desperate to believe in them far more than the dead kid lying in the morgue.

And they know, once they get bail, it’s business as usual. If they get pinched again? Nothing is likely to happen.

After taking a break over the Labour Day weekend, I quickly scanned the police blotters. The majority of accused also have failure to comply attached to their names.

Take Lucais Joseph Dayton, 22, of no fixed address. Cops say he allegedly embarked on quite the rampage in Oshawa.

According to DRPS, Dayton allegedly assaulted a woman before stabbing another man and getting out of Dodge. Minor injuries for the fairer sex, but the male victim was listed in life-threatening condition in a Toronto trauma centre.

Dayton later allegedly stabbed another man, and fled the area before he was later pinched. Let’s see, we have attempted murder charges, aggravated assault, a mish-mash of other charges and … 11 counts of failure to comply with a probation order.

On Friday morning in Toronto, two bozos allegedly fired a shot into the ceiling of a west-end business. There were luckily no injuries.

Eugene Dantcheko, 39, of Vaughan, was arrested and charged with a load of firearms-related charges while his buddy Ahmed Hegazy, 23, of Clarington, was hit with firearms charges and that old chestnut, breach of probation.

Staying in the big city, cops say a 16-year-old tortured and killed several wild animals and the family cat of a community member in Riverdale. The possible serial killer in training was charged with two counts of causing unnecessary pain/suffering or injury to an animal, killing or injuring other animals.

And guess what? Failure to comply with his conditions. While the accused was not subject to a probation order after being convicted of a previous offence, he is alleged to have violated conditions imposed by a court order.

Back in the Durham Region, cops say Christopher Jackson, 30, is allegedly back in the child pornography game. Investigators executed a search warrant in July on suspicion that the resident was making and sharing the garbage.

The suspect was arrested and charged with failing to comply with the SOIRA and Christopher’s Law.  Several electronic devices were seized from the residence. Of course, cops discovered a treasure trove of stomach-churning material.

In addition, there were allegedly plans to go on the road and sexually assault underage persons. There are allegations of possession, making, importing, distributing and possession for the purpose of distribution … gasp. And a lot more.

That includes five counts of breaching orders for a sexual offence conviction and eight counts of failing to comply with a probation order.

Breaching encompasses virtually every category of crime, from big-time you-should-be-locked-up-forever to penny-ante idiocy.

The Dollarama on Laval Dr. in Oshawa was where the big caper was going down, a bounty of riches certain to follow.

Cops say someone smashed the store’s front window before entering. Cops say Krisdon Morse, 35, of Oshawa, is the accused. Morse was charged with break-and-enter and … fail to comply with a probation order.

Here’s the punchline: He was released on an undertaking.

None of the above charges have been proven in court.
