An Ontario gun trafficker released on bail 3 times is nowhere to be found
A reward of up to $50,000 is being offered for information leading to the capture of a convicted firearms trafficker after he was released on bail for a third time and skipped his sentencing, Toronto police say.
Cunningham was convicted on Nov. 27, 2020 of several firearms trafficking charges.
“He has been released on bail three times,” Watts said.
“Each time he has violated his release conditions before being arrested and released on bail again…. Not surprisingly, he did not appear once again for a sentencing hearing.”
Police said it’s suspected he is “continuing his criminal activities” and is likely using an alias and false ID.
The Bolo Program website says Cunningham was initially released on bail while awaiting trial. He was then arrested for violating his conditions and released a second time, the website says.
While awaiting sentencing, he was arrested again for violating his release conditions before being released on bail for a third time and then he didn’t show up for sentencing, Bolo says. |
Why is this a federal politics issue? The Superior Court of Ontario set his bail conditions, did they not?
