The cost of housing an inmate in a federal prison reached $428 per day last year, according to Statistics Canada, though actual expenses are significantly higher when factoring in additional costs such as equipment and staff pensions.
Blacklock’s Reporter says StatsCan’s data on Operating Expenditures For Adult Correctional Services revealed that the annual cost per inmate in federal penitentiaries amounted to $156,220.
Juan Salcedo was fed up with the endless stunt driving outside his front door. Day and night, young men took over the intersection in front of his house and did doughnuts, sometimes for hours on end. At around five in the morning, Salcedo, a bearded, middle-aged homeowner, walked outside and confronted the drivers, asking them to cut it out. One of them pulled a gun on him and said, “This is Oakland. Go back inside.”

Halton Regional Police say they have disrupted a group believed to be responsible for the theft of at least 40 vehicles in Halton Region and the Greater Toronto Area worth over $3 million.
The vehicles were stolen from the GTA and were destined to be shipped overseas, police say.
The investigation started in May after a stolen Toyota Tundra from Hamilton was recovered in a residential area in Burlington.
More than 1,700 prisoners are being released early today. By the end of October, prisons in England and Wales are expected to let out as many as 5,500 offenders prematurely, after they have served just 40 per cent of their sentences.
The threat this prisoner release poses to the public is not in any doubt. Martin Jones, the chief inspector of probation, says it is a ‘certainty’ that many of those let out will reoffend. He expects ‘a third’ to commit further crimes. Many will be back in jail within ‘days or weeks’ for breaching their terms.
Even now, even after watching and rewatching the horrific video of her part in the senseless swarming attack on Kenneth Lee, where she’s enthusiastically hitting, punching and stomping on the vulnerable man — practically doing everything but actually delivering the fatal knife wound — the pig-tailed teen still has no remorse.
Police photos of the Barry and Honey Sherman crime scene suggest she was attacked after she entered their home on Old Colony Road — not carjacked and taken into the house as was initially speculated in police documents.
A photo snapped by a police forensic officer shortly after the pair’s bodies were discovered shows two gift bags placed neatly on the kitchen table, along with a handbag.
Law enforcement in America has collapsed. Americans in many parts of the country see that products at CVS, Walgreens, and Walmart stores are behind plexiglass, that you must call a clerk to unlock the glass and then wait while you read and examine the different packages.
People know these companies have no choice. Americans know that crime is rising, but the true collapse in law enforcement, particularly at large cities, is without precedent.
In the days following the discovery of Barry and Honey Sherman’s bodies, Toronto police vigorously pursued a murder-suicide theory, despite forensic evidence to the contrary. The theory was only abandoned six weeks later following the Star’s publication of the results of a second set of autopsies revealing it was a double murder.
Why did homicide detectives stick to the murder-suicide theory for so long? That’s a question the Star has been trying to answer since the high-profile case began nearly seven years ago. From day one, police were scouring the Sherman home and their electronic devices, looking for a suicide note, while at the same time asking family and friends why Barry would have done such a thing, according to police documents.
Clarke — the Toronto Police Service’s first Black female superintendent — has pleaded guilty to seven counts of professional misconduct and admitted she helped six Black cops cheat to get a promotion in “a desperate effort to level the playing field.”
Toronto police Supt. Stacy Clarke — who admitted she helped six Black cops cheat to get a promotion in “a desperate effort to level the playing field” — has been stripped of her trailblazing rank.
In a highly anticipated penalty decision, a tribunal hearing officer sentenced Clarke, the first Black female superintendent in Toronto police history, to a two-year demotion, knocking her down one rank to inspector.
She will not be automatically reinstated to the rank of superintendent after demotion, meaning she will have to reapply.
A white cop would have been fired. I would not be comfortable dealing with a racist cop would you?
Something interesting is going on in San Francisco where DA Brooke Jenkins, a black woman who ousted the former pro-crime Chesa Boudin and promised to actually enforce the law, is taking on the MacArthur Foundation.
While we often call pro-crime DAs “Soros DAs” and indeed the Nazi collaborating radical billionaire did indeed play a major role in building a pro-crime network of DAs who ignore the law, there are a variety of major foundations who destroyed public safety in America.
Police increasing presence at Hamilton area festivals after swarmings. At Peach Fest, officers ‘likely prevented a shooting’
Hamilton police are increasing the number of officers at community festivals over the next couple of months following a spat of swarming attacks and robberies involving youths at the events last year.
The increased police presence began with the Winona Peach Festival this weekend, where police intervened in several incidents Saturday night.
Canada’s real estate market is an attractive one for those looking to launder money, according to the country’s financial intelligence agency.
“Canadian real estate is considered to be attractive both as a destination for laundered funds and as a channel to launder the proceeds of crime,” says an operational alert issued by the Financial Transactions and Reports Analysis Centre of Canada (FINTRAC).
Police in Toronto say they’re looking for a 33-year-old man known to wear a cowboy hat, cowboy boots and a “cowboy-style” jacket after two women were found dead at an Etobicoke home.
Investigators said they were called to the area of Sheldon Avenue and Silvercrest Avenue before 1 p.m. on Friday, noting a large police presence came after the initial call.
A man has been charged after allegedly sexually assaulting a three-year-old boy at a Brampton hospital on Sunday.

An ongoing turf war within a small segment of Toronto’s tow truck industry has led to an increase in shootings, including 12 separate incidents police allege were carried out by two teen suspects.
At a news conference Wednesday, Toronto Police Chief Myron Demkiw revealed the results of Project Beacon, an investigative effort to address tow truck-related crimes in the city.
He said firearm discharges and shooting events in Toronto have increased by 50 per cent compared to last year, and investigators believe that 14 of those shootings are related to the tow truck industry.
