Gerald stanley firearms fines today
Got 3000 dollar fine plus 900 surcharge and a 10 year firearms ban today. Crown dropped the restricted (pistol) unsafe storage charge and he plead guilty to an unrestricted improper storage charge.
|
Is this charge conditional or discharge? Does it come with a criminal record?

Well, hopefully his wife or others in the household still have PAL's. One wouldn't want to advertise to the army of people who wish him harm that he's unarmed.
|
The fine is very reasonable but 10 years? That I do not agree with at all...
|
A little much isn't it?

I thought it was a reasonable question... |

Doesn't say if the charges are criminal https://www.ctvnews.ca/canada/sask-f...arge-1.3887329 |

I just thought instead of typing here looking for an answer then sitting and waiting for someone else to look it up that people might take the initiative to search for themselves. |

Because he was assessed penalty, it is neither conditional or discharged. He is guilty. He will have to pay $3900. It was not reported, but with this conviction, I believe he will have a criminal record. Charge of improper storage of a restricted firearm was dismissed. This was joint submissions from the Crown and defense council. I have heard the Stanley's are trying to sell some of their land? |

And when will the remaining FN boys be facing there charges? Oh ya I forgot they haven’t been charged with anything yet.. BS if you ask me..

So is this a normal type of charge for a improperly stored firearm? Seems very harsh to me. $100 fine should be adequate given all the circumstances.

They received immunity for testimony. It’s not right, but it happened. |

I am surprised that Stanley's lawyer allowed him to make that deal. The crown had their day in court and the $3000.00 and 10 year ban just sounds vindictive. |

Doesnt affect me but it does make you wonder what the goal of the govt is.... |

But imho, there should have been a 10 day ban in this case. |
I'm surprised his lawyer plead it out. Maybe Gerald is just tired of courtrooms & wasn't big into guns, just another tool around the place. Almost assured the guilty plea be cheaper, even with the fines.
