Hopefully more public will be as passionate about why the number of incidents reported are going up but the number of charges laid are in decline. Habitual criminals are being released daily. We know its hard to come forward which means we don't know how much of a real problem this is in our country. AND don't take my word for it, Check out statscan site for yourself.
The result of guilty or not guilty may come down to a technicality one way or the other but the true justice will be why so much effort was put forward to convict 1st time offenders (high profile I understand, with I'm sure most people will agree have a micro chance to repeat) and not the serial criminals out there that are making Canadian streets unsafe to walk.
I hope the crown takes as much care and time to convict career criminals as they do with people who are 1st time offenders and minuscule chance to repeat.
 to be Canadian these days.

Wow. This is just ... all over the place. Please tell me you don't think the victim here are the accused?
Your attitude may be why charges are declining. The victims don't want to got through this process?
"We don't know how big of a problem this is"..."Check out Statscan for yourself" ? What are you even saying?
Proving a case like this beyond a reasonable doubt, or not, is well beyond the realm of a "technicality."
I hope that prosecutors take the time and effort to prove EVERY case that comes before them regardless of who the defendant is or is not.
You would like criminals locked up longer? Me too. You want your taxes to increase to pay for it? Didn't think so.
And sensualism is not the word that you think it is.
