   This is a VERY OLD and LONG TOLD story that YOU are misrepresenting here   
   PROBABLY cause you are taking ONE SINGLE PERSONS opinion as FACT!!!   
   Talk to some of the family members who lost love ones!   
      
   This was STRAIGHT UP inane, lousy, typical as rain, bc justice! They are   
   straight up whacked out losers who couldn't police THEMSELVES let alone   
   INVESTIGATE ANYTHING!!!   
      
   The war on DRUGS, SUCKS and is bad and should be abolished!!   
      
   But the war on drugs has NOTHING to do with the travesty of justice that is   
   the serial killer case in Vancouver!   
   This from a NYer who spent time in the lower mainland regional correctional   
   facility, Ocala Prison Farm, for the war on drugs!!!   
   So tell your lawyer friend to INVESTIGATE and LEARN the ENTIRE facts of the   
   case before he puts his 2cents in where it wont make change for a thought!
