From Arrest To Release: A Broken Justice System?

- Touch me, and you'll rot in jail! Not so fast...
In this eye-opening video, I delve into the harsh reality of the justice system, where suspects of crimes often evade significant consequences, leaving victims but even the Police feeling powerless and frustrated.
Despite promises of justice, the stark truth is that incarceration (jail time) rarely becomes a reality for those accused. I explain the process after arrest such as conditions of release, and the disillusionment victims face as their perpetrators seemingly walk away unscathed.
But it's not all despair; I also offer insights on how you can engage and advocate for change, empowering both individuals and communities to push for a more fair and effective justice system.

I came forward after 10 years of violent Domestic Abuse. He was charged with 6 counts by Toront Police. He didn't spend a day in jail. He's on a restraining order. Big DEAL! He got the best lawyers and got off his charges. Toronto Police couldn't do much more and either could the CROWN. He destroyed my life😢
I’m sorry to hear that; I appreciate you taking the time to comment and I hope things are better 🙏🏼
Peace bonds are common. Restraining order is a family court order.
why did you came forward after 10 years ?
@kmann6431 you were never kept "captive" were you? ;)
@@AnnaAnnieAnneofGreenGables kept captive is a bullshit response. Obviously, you haven't been punched in the face and sustained damage. Or maybe you will never fear being left broke or homeless. Grow up
Very educational, scary . Thank you.
Thank you for watching.
Good information here. Took paralegal in college and learned a lot about the legal system. The most interesting part is this isn’t caused by the Criminal Code of Canada and is caused by a weak system. Thank you for educating people about how the legal system works.
Thanks for your input as well, I appreciate it and wholeheartedly agree.
Our justice system has been broken for a while now. Kinda sad how these criminals get away with things, and not take accountability for it, or responsibility for their own mistakes of their actions. It’s like they get a free slap on the hand or wrist and that’s it, back on the streets doing more crimes.
Thanks again for the video Randy! Please keep continuing to doing more. 🙏🏼
Thank you, I appreciate the feedback. And I agree, there’s certainly a lack of accountability.
Great video Randall. Great advice, I agree Police and victims of crime need to join forces and advocate together to make this change. I never really gave much though that we can actually get involved in polices that the judges follow. Ron Chhinzer is doing a great job bringing this subject to light as well on his twitter.
Yeah he’s doing great for sure, I’m glad to see him expand his voice that way, a great ally! Thanks for the comment.
Sir, couldn’t agree more. So well explained. Legislation must change. Former Correctional officer here. Saw everything in jail.
On a personal note: An inmate ended my career. Violent assault. Have permanent disability. I’m changed forever. Body and soul. The guy got absolutely nothing. No charge bc was done in the only no cam angle. « My words c. Him » My words of 35 y of loyal service. I lost faith in the system for a while.
Thank you for your service, all of you out there, and stay safe.
I hear you brother! To this day it is still unchanged. Officers continued to be attacked as there's no repercussions for their actions. Hope you're doing well now mate!
Thank you for sharing your thoughts, I appreciate you taking the time 🙏🏼
Thanks for this video. I work in a retail security environment and its always frustrating to see people committing dozens of thefts or break and enters and seeing them released on the scene.
That’s for sure! Thanks for the input.
Thank you for this video. I was assaulted 18 months ago. The guy spent one night in jail before being let out on conditions (which he has broken in previous charges). Now I am getting pushed around the legal system as he keeps delaying and delaying. We were supposed to go to court next week and now it may not be until next fall or winter. I feel like I have been the one in jail. I can’t leave my house or hang out with friends for fear of running in to him. He spent last summer living on a boat. It’s ridiculous! As you stated, I am a first time victim and at every turn, hospital, police, victim services, lawyers and the crown have let me down. I found out He has had 38 previous convictions and is out living his life! My life has forever changed. I have completely lost faith in the fact that the system, or anyone for that matter, is there to protect my rights and my safety. Thank you for doing what you are doing. I will look for some of those groups and see what I can do to make a change for the next person he assaults.
Thank you darling sharing and I’m sorry you went through through that. 🙏🏼
A sad but true account of our justice system. One aspect that has been very public and recent is the sad state of affairs surrounding auto theft and how long it has taken to make incremental progress with this issue. Sadly politicians may abdicate their responsibility and blame manufacturers when other issues surrounding this topic actually prevent the police from doing their jobs. Justice reform is very much needed.
I agree and thank you for the input.
Thanks for informing and inviting the community to participate
Thank you as well.
Thank you for speaking openly and frankly about these issues. Personally, I feel the justice system is too lax on certain crimes. I pray our next Government makes the necessary reforms.
After serving time on Jury Duty and also being witness to the Crown on a murder case I can wholeheartedly attest to the fact that our Justice System is broken and will not protect the law abiding Canadians. This is not to say that the Police will not try and do their part. The system and jails are not sufficient to deal with the current levels of crime and most of that rests with politicians who do not fund jails and rehabilitation centers the way they should. Diversion programs work if the future criminal is treated early and shown the lawful path. These programs are grossly underfunded and under staffed. For those hardened criminals that rehabilitation does not work on stop the current catch and release program that all governments currently practice. For theses types lock them up and throw away the key. Just my two cents worth feel free to disagree as we still currently live in a free nation.
Thanks for the well articulated response, I appreciate you taking the time ✌🏼
Another informative video about our prison system and law sir
Thank you ✌🏼
Great video
Thanks! ✌🏼
Hey Randall! Love the video and totally agree. I currently work inside an ontario Correctional Center in Southern ontario on the intake unit. I see every inmate that comes into the correctional center. Within a calendar year I see many individuals come in upwards of 4-6 times. Some on new charges, fail to comply, breach and so on. Their behavior during incarceration is any better either. Theres been times where ive personally escorted someone to admitting and discharge to be released only to see him back within days. I often ask them why they're back and they just laugh and say , " breach of conditions or a new charge" and the cycle goes on and on. With the current inmate population being astronomically high within the prison system at this current time. Most inmates are getting time knocked off sentences due to lock downs and lack of staffing and I believe itll get worst before it gets better.
I think so too. Thank you for taking the time to type that and share your thoughts. 🙏🏼
I have no idea why police now have to let some suspects go after the suspect agrees to certain conditions. I wonder if it's because jails/prisons were too full.
The justice system does need to be overhauled. But the last time the federal government under PM Harper tried to make a change in changing prison time prior to trial to 1 day per day served from 1 and a half day for each day served, the justices ignored the legislation saying that the government and justice have to remain 2 separate entities.
When my daughter was 16 and assaulted, the justice system totally failed her. The creep lived beside us with his parents and the judge gave him permission to visit them yet still have to stay 200 m away from her and any schools. The crosswalk for the elementary school (that was less than 200 m from his parents house) started on their boulevard. The judge refused to let me speak about this.
Thank you once again for the insights, Leigh!
If we had a justice system like the US things would be better. The US is very harsh on sentences and I like that.
Hi. I was able to speak to a probation officer that gave me the names of two companies that offer pre-apprenticeship programs to youth in that situation. Pretty amazing opportunities. Just thought I would let you know 🙏🏻🙏🏻
Yes they have to go to court to prove guilty first etc etc ..
Yup 💯 percent agree .. 👀
Thank you ✌🏼
Canadians justice system is simply catch and release. Judges grant Bail to easily. Canada seeks rehabilitation not punishment 😊😊
I appreciate the comment ✌🏼
By now, I hope people know who NOT to vote for in the next election. That's all I will say for now.
I hope so too! I better keep the rest to myself 😂👍🏼
What is the benefit of this catch and release system?
We must properly address the so called "benefits", real change requires support from both sides.
Personally, I see none.
Did the change occur due to COVID? Why did the change occur? Who implemented it and why?
It did, it was brought down federally, so everywhere in the country.
I see people protesting about rent increase, conflicts around the world, against police etc...and never seen any organized protest concerning this idiotic justice system...By the way, great video and a topic. Randall for president.
Thank you! You can be my campaign manager 😎
I was a victim of a stalker who was a customer where I worked back in 2008. He ended up spending some time in jail but then got a call he was released (maybe 6 months later). There was an order that he had to stay away from my workplace and not contact me. After i was told, i've never heard back from the detective. Is that normal? No idea if hes alive or dead but constantly fearing i will bump into him. This is why i refuse to have a profile picture on my instagram and facebook so my photo doesnt appear in google search if you search my name.
It’s somewhat normal yes, one of the Detectives will call and let the victim know that they’re being released. All the best to you.
I can understand releasing a suspect w conditions as long as it's not serious crime or a repeat offense that is causing harm
I understand there are circumstances w each case but hoping the repeaters are monitored closely or have to do some community service Just letting them out and they do the crime again say auto theft or drugs is not helping anyone especially the suspect IMO
I wholeheartedly agree. Thanks for the input.
@@OfficerArsenault By the way love these videos Thank you
And then there's reverse onus offences ..
Wasn’t sure which video to post this under. But I do have a specific question considering your background in policing and in trades. Do you know of any Toronto Trades program for high risk youth who have been in trouble with the law? I have some community connections I’m going to ask the same question. But since engaging (a lot I know) in your content I thought I would ask. Just heard this morning about the large group brawl where a 14 year old was stabbed close to Weston Collegiate 😞 Youth need us. Society need us to help them too. If you don’t know that’s ok.
Thank you kindly. 🙏🏻
Also looking at TDSB options. But likely finishing high school may not work out for this individual. 🙏🏻
I saw four update, good to hear. My apologies, I often don’t go into my inbox for days at a time, backed up with work 🙏🏼
@@OfficerArsenault That’s ok. I understand! There are some companies doing good work towards supporting youth in this lucrative and satisfying field so that IS good news. 🙂
Yes there is a problem with the current catch and release program but sometimes people SHOULD BE released. Let's not try to "fix" the problem by creating another one. Locking up otherwise law abiding people because of an isolated incident in their lives is an extremely bad idea too.
Someone who strangled me almost to me dying got nothing but a peace bond! They went on and stabbed a elderly person within a year of what they did to me.
I think 17yo should be treated like adults if they are living like adults or are violent repeat offenders
I agree, and sorry that happened to you 🙏🏼
Just my thoughts but I feel that criminals don’t fear the police anymore or maybe police hands are tied to how much can be done as many especially in this area tend to leave police station with a court date and either repeat the same offence or commit another. It’s just sad and frustrating.
I agree, very sad and frustrating. Thank you for the input.
When you mention repeat offenders, it falls under the category of "irresistible impulse". That could land in a psychiatric concept. Come think of it.
As for terms and conditions set by cops, it's just as bad as the "faint hope" clause for murderers. I feel if it's a first offense, OK. Anyone else, repeat offfender rate is through the roof (just speculation on my end).
I see nothing wrong (bit off topic here) using pressure points when arresting suspects so you have a window of a few seconds to arrest the suspect peacefully.
The only problem is that not enough officers train physically enough to even know or attempt certain methods which would actually cut down on injuries during arrest. And as far as your first part, that’s a good point, really something to consider. I appreciate the input 🙏🏼
People dont understand that justice is essentially denunciation, deterrence and rehabilitation.
If insane sentences made a safer society, then America should be the safest country on Earth.
Thank you for sharing 🙏🏼
I have learned first hand that the only people the current justice system benefits is the accused. If your a victim you are in for a rude awakening because there is no justice or support for you. Never in a million years would I have thought that until I got to experience it first hand.
Releasing someone on conditions is a joke as they next to never abides by them. Even when they go against those conditions they get off. Restraining orders are nice to have in place but honestly a waste of paper. The accused continues to do what they want because they know they will continue to get away with it. While the victim and their families lives are destroyed.
So, yes the justice system if we can call it that, not only needs an overhaul but a complete rebuild. Not only in the criminal sector either.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts, it’s incredibly frustrating 🙏🏼
What if the comments are deleted?
If they are it would be for a good reason. I also have filters on which don’t allow a lot of profanity, etc. 😎
