Ex-immigration judge guilty in sex-for-status case - thestar.com

In most instances, I'm a very socially liberal kind of person. I may be more centrist / right on Political or Financial issues, but when it comes to Social Issues, I'm pretty much live-and-let-live.

However.

In cases where judges, police, or those in authority positions abuse those positions, I'm a rock.

As society must be, in order to protect itself from the rot from within.

Ex-immigration judge guilty in sex-for-status case - thestar.com:

"A former immigration judge has been found guilty of trying to coerce sex from a South Korean refugee claimant in return for a favourable ruling on her case.

First, I would like to welcome the young woman to Canada; I'm sorry that you had to deal with scum like this. Thankfully you've found justice, thanks to your boyfriend (now husband) at the time.

“He knew that what he was doing was wrong,” Ontario Superior Court Justice Thea Herman said Wednesday morning in finding Steve Ellis guilty of breach of trust and an Immigration and Refugee Protection Act charge of bribery.

“Mr. Ellis abused his position to his own advantage.”

Ellis, 50, who is also a former Toronto city councillor, showed little reaction to Herman’s ruling at first, but at one point raised his head and sighed.

I wish there was a special place where we could send Mr. Ellis. An island up in Nunavut or a work camp in northern Saskatchewan. You know, some place where we can send those special offenders. Those that prey on the system from within.

Some others that should probably be keeping him company are the four RCMP officers from Vancouver that tasered Robert Dziekanski to death.

One whom (was arguably drunk when he) later killed a guy on a motorbike in a separate incident.
