Tragic's Rants & Raves

Guilty! Guilty! Guilty! or

...well, why would the police arrest him if he weren't guilty?

A few weeks ago, a little girl was snatched off the streets of Toronto. Parts of her body were discovered the next day, in a bag that had been thrown into the lake. The police have arrested a man from the little girl's neighbourhood and have charged him with first-degree murder.

Now - I'd always been told that in Canada, a person is innocent until proven guilty. I think that's a pretty good system. Don't you?

Well - apparently the country's 'national' newspaper doesn't seem to think so. Here's a snippet of their article that followed the fella's arrest:

[His photo] shows a fleshy-faced man with a normal-sized jaw and ears that apparently have been pinned. He has soft, dark hair parted on the side, a small, weak mouth and eyes like blank, black holes.

That certainly seems like a fair and respectable bit of reporting, doesn't it. I'm glad that we have this reporter and her trusty google toolbar to dig up the facts, because otherwise we'd never know the following things that are proof positive that the man is a killer.

The local falafel shop owner always said 'hello' to the suspect.... but he never said 'hello' back.

He actually clicked on one of those 'classmates.com' banners and signed himself up
(I actually see this as the most compelling bit of evidence from the article - what a freak! :P )
