Prosecutor Juliana Martel had asked a judge to revoke the pair’s bail while they awaited sentencing. He refused

Two international students — both convicted in the gang rape of a young Ottawa woman — have skipped town and possibly the country.

Ontario Court Justice Robert Fournier gave them 72 hours to turn in their passports at Ottawa police headquarters but they never showed and haven’t been seen since they walked out of the Elgin Street courthouse. Arrest warrants have been issued for the fugitives, according to court records, and the Canada Border Services Agency has been asked to investigate if and how the pair fled the country.

The woman said she felt like a meaningless object when the men started talking about having a threesome because it was one of their birthdays, and she would be the gift. Even the thought of it was upsetting, and she found their conversation “chilling,” court heard. The judge also highlighted that the victim did not waiver during a “relentless” cross-examination by defence lawyer Oliver Abergel.

Whatever happened to diversity is our strength?

Court Justice Robert Fournier was responsible for this.

Truly I tell you, the law & justice, rarely meet. Innocence, is the crime with a sentence. Victims, are condemned becos they’re looked upon as weak?

The 'Just-Us' system is accountable to no-one. Judges are politically appointed and not voted in by the people. Time to pressure your politicians to change this. Timetochangejustusbacktojustice

We live in Bazzaro World. Why wouldn’t the police release photos of these convicted rapist fugitives? Why are the being protected?

Diversity 🤮🤮🤮

Why were two international students who were convicted of gang rape 'granted bail and afforded the chance to finish their degrees'?! That alone should have the public up in arms. And why does canada judges continue to downplay the seriousness of rape. elxn43

😡 they need devices to monitor them so they stay in jail.
