Subhead:The courts have essentially freed two individuals accused in separate manslaughter incidents, forcing police to issue a public alert in an attempt to protect a blindsided community.#
Chief Stuart Betts of the Peterborough Police is calling for bail reform after the Crown released two individuals involved in separate violent incidents resulting in the death of another person.
“This week, two people, who were arrested and charged by my Investigators, under the offence of homicide, were released from custody with Court imposed conditions that, essentially, amount to house arrest as their cases make their way through Court,” reads a September 18 public message from Chief Betts.
