[MBHockey13]

Really sad and scary.

 

When I was a kid Don Edwards was my favorite player for a while.

gat damn.

He was my favourite goalie when I was a kid, I remember when that brutal event happened.......Keep your head up Mr. Edwards

[Stoner]

Terrible. I can't believe the family has been "in hiding" since the murders. Am I reading that right?

I would get angry at the weak criminal justice system in Canada -  but I honestly can't say our criminal justice system is any better here in NYS.... we let both William Spengler and Arthur Shawcross out early, and without supervision.  That ended well, huh?   :rolleyes:     Spengler beat his elderly, legally blind grandmother to death with a hammer - and got out afeter 17 years.   Shawcross incredibly served only 12 years for the vicious rape and murder of two small children.

I had no idea.

 

The problem is unless you are the worst of the terrible killers and rapists (Paul Bernardo ...) you will not be classified as a *never to see the outside*.

 

If the parole board has already released this bugger on day passes and such I don't hold out much hope.

 

That said, there is some hope.  Best wishes, Mr. Edwards.

Unbelievable. The judges and parole board should be in prison.

[Huckleberry]

To be honest, in clear cut cases like these, i wouldn't mind the dead penalty.  My opinion but a very popular one over here.

[Peter]

Wow.  I had no idea.  Horrible.

[Eleven]

Holy .  That is brutal.
