Lives destroyed

Trevor Cadieu, Stephan Whelan and Corey Gelowitz, all military men, have had their lives, reputations and families ruined.  Why?  Because some woman -- who, of course, can't be named -- accused them of sexual assault 30 years ago.

Thirty years ago!!!!

These men, who had served their country for decades, are now forced to live in shame and disgrace.  But here's the kicker:  After nine months of dragging them through the mud, the Crown dropped the cases!

Dropped the cases!!!!  But not before their good names had been pried into and sullied during noisy and ugly investigations and discoveries.

So, the charges were dropped, they were not convicted and yet they have been ruined, all thanks to some female who charged them with unproveable sexual assault.  She gets to remain anonymous, but they don't.  Great job!

Probably at a party like this.

This so-called sexual assault happened at a party, where we all know people get a little overly-friendly after a few pops -- especially in a young, military culture.  Boys will be boys in that environment.  They weren't charged with rape, so what happened?  Probably a little familiar patting, hugging, or dancing.  So what?  But the woman twisted it into assault.

That's disgraceful.

Reminds me of the case of a female NDP MP who charged another with sexual assault a few years ago.  Her name was protected, but the man was outed and also ruined.  He had to resign his seat and slink into the shadows in disgrace.

If women want a little respect, they need to man up and shut up.  Unless it's rape, get over it.  I mean, it was at a boisterous party.  Are some women so weak they can't fend for themselves and tell a guy they're not interested?  Apparently so and 30 years later they get some poor schlep charged.  Why didn't they do it back then?  Because they'd have gotten nowhere.

Shame on them.

Here's another brilliant story.  Two police officers, who were called to a violent altercation at a home in Edmonton three years ago, have been cleared by the Serious Incident Response Team (SIRT) of any wrongdoing.  The problem with this is that these two officers were the ones gunned down and killed by the guy brandishing the firearm.

They were killed, but SIRT still investigated them to see if they had been justified in drawing their weapons before being shot and killed by a guy aiming a gun at them!!!!

Let that sink in!

I have never heard of anything so ridiculous in all my life.  After they were killed, their families had to go through a three-year nightmare of having their loved ones investigated and smeared before being cleared.

The world has gone mad.
