Madam Speaker, rehabilitation is for those who have often committed lesser crimes than those who are going to be re-entering society. The member for Saanich—Gulf Islands is very naive to think that Terri-Lynne McClintic would ever be released. The records show that brutal child murderers, those who abduct, sexually assault, torture and kill their victims never make parole.
The idea that she deserves to be in a minimum security facility after only serving eight years is ridiculous. She is not a model prisoner. She has demonstrated time and time again that she is not remorseful for the crime that she committed, and she has been brutalizing other inmates. She even brags about stabbing one in the face.
Terri-Lynne McClintic does not deserve to be at the healing lodge. She deserves to be back behind bars.
