Attorney General Murray Rankin came under fire from the B.C. Liberals this week over the damning findings in a government report on repeat offenders and random street violence.
Rankin stumbled again in suggesting that the public actually supports a light touch in dealing repeat offenders.
“I do not think that the people of B.C. believe that arresting and enforcing the law is the way to go,” he declared.
The Criminal Code provides for the detention of repeat offenders who violate bail conditions. There are also precedents for directives to Crown prosecutors to seek detention of violent and repeat offenders in the public interest.
