Isn't that what the diplomat's sun is being charged with on Florida? He wasn't there when all the shooting took place, but was waiting in the car and knew criminal activity was taking place.

I never had a car stolen in Manitoba, but this is my car a months go. The 26 year old man who stole it, has a lengthy history of this kind of activity, and was released 12 hours after it happened. He was only charged with possession of stolen property. They almost killed a mother and daughter.
That 's brutal Jets4life. It's like it's too much trouble to actually punish criminals anymore.

Also I absolutely despise the YCJA. That POS should be named and shown.
Alas, pumping gas is not a criminal act.

and pumping gas is all he did.

Stealing gas is and he was the one that did the act of pumping the gas without the intent of paying for it so he did steal it.

He was also in the vehicle when they ran over the victim and he didn't try to prevent it, therefore in my mind he's an accessory to a criminal act.

I'm not defending the 16 year old, but we don't have the whole story. You can possibly say either of those things with certainty.

Zero relevance to me, Being on drugs is zero excuse in my books, just like drinking and driving and killing someone is zero excuse.

One would might think that just driving a vehicle isn't a criminal act. But certainly the driver of a "get away" car for a bank heist is clearly an accessory. Let alone the murder that was committed in the midst of the crime.

I'm not defending the punk, but you aren't going to get a conviction against him for gasoline theft when he wasn't the one driving. and I doubt they would be able to prove that he was an accessory.

Besides, I would presume that his testimony will help convict the driver, who was the one that ran down and killed the clerk. I'd say that's worth giving up on the 30 hours of community service he would get through AMP for stealing gas.

Did he know that the vehicle was stolen?

Did he know that the gas was stolen?

did he know that the victim was brutally run down?

Didn't he pump the gas and then jump in the back seat of the truck then it took off? That would mean yes he knew the gas was stolen.

I don't know, do you?

If you do you should probably go let the cops know.

Do you know for sure? Maybe the idiot driver picked him up saying "Look at my new ride?"

Maybe the driver told him to pump the gas and he would go in and pay. Then the kid jumped in and the guy drove off?

Quote:

After it happened, yeah. Do we know he wasn't screaming at the driver to stop?

Again, not defending, but you're making assumptions based on being angry. I'm angry with the driver too for this absolutely brutal, violent act, but we don't have the whole story yet.

What's the age that they say that kids are not old enough to understand the consequences of their actions? 14?

That's when the youth act should be limited to. Every single 16 year old understands the consequences of breaking the law. If not, then why the #### are they allowed to drive a car? Plenty of consequences there.

####ing bull####.

Weren't people on here complaining about Harper trying to increase punishments under the CCoC, introduce mandatory minimums and shouting their praise of the SCC when mandatory minimums were struck down?

Now everyone is complaining that the law won't do enough to punish the criminal who committed this crime.

Increasing the sentences on drug crimes is dumb.

Increasing the sentences on murder? Not dumb.

Not all crimes are equal.

People fought against mandatory minimums because they affected people who are not violent criminals and ideally should not be incarcerated (like possessing small amounts of narcotics).

No reason why not having mandatory minimums precludes the driver from getting hit with a murder charge. I really don't understand why they didn't charge him with that. Isn't it common practice to charge the absolute max/worst offence possible? This guy should be in prison, he is a violent criminal.

As in he's out on bail from this incident? Or he was out on bail for something else when this occurred?
