‘Catch and Release’ — Is Canada’s bail system really broken?

from Closer Look Hosted by Alison Craig, Michael Friscolanti, Scott Sexsmith

Frisco and Scott return for Season Two of Inside the Village. After the fatal shooting of an OPP officer last month, politicians and police chiefs decried the sorry state of Canada’s bail system. Why? One of the two people charged with murdering 28-year-old Const. Grzegorz Pierzchala was banned for life from owning firearms and somehow out on bail — free to allegedly commit a horrible crime. Our guest is prominent defence lawyer Alison Craig, who has spent a lot more time in bail court than most of the people screaming for an overhaul. Does the system need some fixing? It sure does, but maybe not for the reasons you think. Reach out to Frisco and Scott
