Justice Delayed for Mark Squires Family

Another delay in sentencing for Rodney Constantine, the man convicted in the fatal December 2023 crash that killed Mark Squires, leaves the grieving family in limbo once more. Scheduled for August 4, the court’s decision to postpone sentencing—after Constantine’s new lawyer requested more time—means the family must continue waiting while Constantine remains free. Mark’s mother, Sandra, voiced her anguish, saying there’s no peace when court is a constant presence in their lives. The crash, which occurred when Constantine drove into a home on Empire Avenue, took Mark’s life instantly. Though Constantine pleaded guilty in July and his legal team recently changed, the Crown’s request for custody was denied, citing no breach of release conditions. As holidays and birthdays pass without Mark, the family struggles with the stark contrast between their loss and Constantine’s freedom. They hold out hope that August’s final sentencing will finally bring them the closure they’ve been denied for months. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
