In this case is there really any justice really? No words, or punishments with ever be enough. Her family can no longer be the same. With that being said, I'm not comfortable with Capitol punishment. There have been too many corrupt investigations, too many innocent people killed. You can't be wrong in these things. I don't believe in an "eye for an eye". Please don't confuse me as a sympathizer though. I truly feel he's guilty of everything and will have a miserable time in prison. Our justice system is far from perfect but it still needs to be given space to play itself out. Cases like this always are difficult as the lives of the innocent are hardest to lose.

While there is a lot to say about this thing, one point that seems to stand out is the apparent rampant use of drugs in S.W. Ontario! The two sickos, Tori's mom, how many others? I belong to a group favoring "Tori's Law". Capital punishment for these two, and any others confirmed guilty. Check out Charles Adler on Corus Entertainment radio stations across the country.

There are only 782,000 hits for "Freedom Hall" (in quotes) on Google. Boy ours will really stand out from the crowd. By comparison there are 30% fewer hits for "Monty Hall", the long-time host of "Let's Make a Deal". So ours would have been way easier to find online if we named it after a game show host.
