Crown prosecutor Zoey Kim-Zeggelaar made her argument next, saying it is no question Jackson took his daughter to avoid the vaccine, but it was also his intention to deprive the mother possession of the child. Kim-Zeggelaar argued, “how could intend one of these things without intending the other… He believed his daughter would be vaccinated against his wishes and took her.”The couple’s custody order in place in November 2021 outlined that the wife had final say on decisions about the child’s health but Jackson would be consulted on decisions.
“Even though there was no formal discussion, it was clear what his opinion was,” Kim-Zeggelaar said. “He stated he did not want her vaccinated and expressed that to the mother.”The Crown also read a series of text messages Jackson sent to the RCMP while on the run, including one that read “never seeing her mother again would be a benefit and not a loss.”
