   John KingofthePaupers Turmel to All   
   TURMEL: MedPot Rene Ouellet offered No J   
   18 Jan 18 09:36:33   
   
   From: johnturmel@yahoo.com   
      
   JCT: Rene Ouellet was in Quebec Superior Court in Quebec City   
   Monday with his Quash Motion to be dealt with and then his   
   trial next week on Jan 22.   
      
   Remember, when contacted by Ray, he was about to be jailed for   
   8 months but Ray talked him into changing his plea and   
   attacking the law.   
      
   After a myriad of court adventures, sent up to Superior, sent   
   back down the Provincial, went back up to Superior then Court   
   of Appeal to be sent back to Provincial who sent him up to   
   Superior.   
      
   So the Crown offered him a deal with no mandatory jail for the   
   Production charge if he pleads to the Possession charge.   
   Problem is it's Possession for the Purpose of Trafficking and   
   they have no evidence of trafficking.   
      
   Even the judge admitted there was no evidence for trafficking.   
   So tough to plead guilty to it. I told him to ask the judge if   
   he could plead to the S.4 Possession offence of which he is   
   obviously guilty and not to the purpose of trafficking of   
   which he is not.   
      
   So Rene is happy having avoided a jail sentence. I just hope   
   he can plead to the right crime.   
      
   Back on Tuesday Jan 24 for his conviction and the judge said   
   he'd take time to think about sentencing.   
      
   And as one medpot accused gets off, another files a Quash   
   motion in Gatineau today.
