A Canadian Global News political journalist has shared details of a disturbing situation involving criminal harassment.
For those unfamiliar with the backstory, Stephenson revealed that an individual had been convicted and imprisoned for criminally harassing her with graphic sexual messages. The email is a violation of the offender's probation, leading Stephenson to fear for her safety once again. Stephenson expressed frustration with the system, noting that even if the police were to arrest the individual, there are no guarantees that he would remain in custody. Due to the involvement of a Justice of the Peace rather than a judge, there is a risk that the offender would be released immediately despite multiple probation violations and a history of harassment.
