Okay. I'll do one more point and leave the last two for questions. I'll finish this last one, because it deals directly with a criticism we have with respect to justifying the transfer of Mr. Bernardo on the basis of his recent full integration with other offenders on his range.
This justification is stunningly weak and completely detached from the sheer sadistic brutality of his crimes. That range in maximum security is very limited. Further—and I think everyone on the committee knows this—the hallmark of psychopathy is an offender being cunning, deceptive, manipulative, a liar, callous, glib, grandiose, narcissistic and often intelligent. This was the expert evidence before Associate Chief Justice LeSage at the time of the trial and the dangerous offender application, and this was the evidence before the Parole Board. These types of offenders learn how to manipulate the system and the various tests being applied to them, and they learn from test to test. Therefore, there has to be a different criterion applied to these individuals.
Thank you for the extra time. I'll be happy to take your questions.
