Handing down her decision in a Winnipeg courtroom on Tuesday, Judge Catherine Carlson said: “The court expects there is no sentence it can impose that the victims, and indeed many members of the public, will find satisfactory.”
Many Canadians have expressed outrage with the decision, including Holt, who said in a statement “Graham James is laughing all the way back to the life he has always led, knowing that justice for him is but a blip on the radar.”
