Just heard this on Global News(TV)..It's not in the Edmonton Journal for
some mysterious reason.

Edmonton Police constable Douglas Kurtis Brown crashes his car after running
a red light and likely speeding and is charged with impaired driving. He
injured five people, one seriously (burns).

Now they admit they found marijuana in his car. They also found a properly
stored 12 gauge shotgun in his trunk.

Why was he not charged with possession of marijuana?
Why no gun charge?

Was his home searched for more evidence?

EPS is covering up again...they never learn...The Chief should be fired as
an example.

He was probably stoned and drunk. Now we'll never know if he was stoned and
if he had a grow op at home.
Why the need for a shotgun..protection from his dealers?

Thanks..I'll read that on line...What happens in cases like this is the
senior officers appoint a Barney Fife like imbecile that just graduated to
do the inital investigative work...that way a legal loophole you could drive
a semi through is left.. As I understand it that's what happened with the
Branders case where the kid was killed on the Yellowhead by the speeding
dark(no lights no siren) cop car.

A Non-restricted firearm is never considered stored in a car -a legal
impossibility. This is actually covered under transport regulations and for
Non-restricted firearms (shotguns) this simply means putting the gun in the
trunk.

Rules for Restricted and prohibited firearms are very different.

No gun law broken that I can see.

So now the cops will be trying to get Tony Blais, Sun court reporter, for
impaired driving or whatever else they can dredge up just like they did with
the Overtime Surveillance fiasco where they tried to get the Police
commision chair and the Sun columnist for impaired driving. EPS=Keystone
Cops...bunch of idiots chasing their own tails.

Does that you can dial 911 and a cop will deliver the drug of your choice?

Like your mother did while she was pregnant with you?
That explains a lot.

Wonder how stoned the guy that did her was, must have been a massive

Hmmmmm, from the Journal Website:

http://www.canada.com/edmontonjournal/news/story.html?id=dfac1da1-7b25-438b-91ee-761b386357ca

A quote from the story...

"There are criteria that need to be met for the safe transportation of
firearms and this met all of those criteria," he said, adding that such
criteria could include that the gun be unloaded, trigger-locked and
separated from ammunition.
Police are investigating to whom the marijuana belongs, Wuite said, and
charges will then be laid.

The shit heads are out in full force! Last time I checked cops are human
and one making a error or not living up to the standards of his oath doesn't
tarnish all. Take a look around at the priests,doctors ,politicians.....
whatever the group you'll always have some that deviate beyond what the
group stands for. Funny though when it involves a police member the loonie
toons line up in to fire whatever pot shots they can at the entire
organization.One individuals irresponsible behavior should not brand the
entire police force as incompetent.

I feel sorry for the victims and families involved as well as the
outstanding members of our police force who do protect and serve!

Place the blame to the responsible individual and lets not paint everyone of
that occupation with the same label..... if it would have been a electrician
or plumber would we cast those in that occupation in the same light? I think
not!

The Toronto mounted cops had a funeral for a horse who was hit by some
stupid, drunken Hungarian immgrant in his car. Horses are important to
crowd control too.

You should have been here back in '93 when the Blue Jays won for the second
time. The city lit up like a blow torch, but violence was minimal.

A massive celebration on Yonge street outside of my door step.

I have never been so proud of my city. We were so cool. At least 100,000
people going nuts. Nothing like Vancouver in '94 or anywhere else.

Very non violent.

Print version of the Journal can appear up to 24 hours after
the reported events happen. Could appear faster on the
paper's online version, but unless you are an online
subscriber, chances are you only get the main headlines. And
I doubt an update on this story would get the coverage of a
major breaking news story.

Given that sentences in this country are normally served
concurrently, and this guy is getting the book thrown at
him, . . ..

Anyway, as PV pointed out in his follow-up, the police will
lay charges once they determine to whom the marijuana
belongs.

> $Why no gun charge?

If it is properly stored, and the constable has the reqisite
licences and permits, what laws are being broken?

> $Was his home searched for more evidence?

They would need a search warrant to do that. And to get
that, they would need to satisfy a judge that a search was
warranted.

As I pointed out above, sentences are served concurrently as
a general rule. Even if you could prove he was stoned at
the wheel, you aren't going to get more time if you charged
him with drug impaired driving in addition to the five
alcohol impaired driving chages he is already facing.

As to a grow op at his home, the police would need a search
warrant to conduct such a search, and they would have to
satisfy a judge there were reasonable and probable grounds
to conduct such a search.

> $Why the need for a shotgun..protection from his dealers?

Maybe he's into duck hunting.

Lots of people own non restricted firearms like shotguns and
hunting rifles, and own them for perfectly legitimate
reasons.

http://www.albertastars.com/posts.php?forum=4&topic=1775 has a pic of
the officer.

http://cnews.canoe.ca/CNEWS/Crime/2008/05/14/5560411-sun.html states
that he helped rescue the injured man from the burning vehicle. Just
fire him, let him face the charges and get on with it. Since he helped
save the guy I think that changes the scenario. The marihuana could
have come from one of the other three passengers in the vehicle. The
post doesn't mention if it was in a plastic baggie or a film canister
but if it was they could dust for prints. He was driving a BMW 745i
which goes for 108k.

The chief needed special protection for awhile because he kept getting
death threats.

None of this has anything to do with van.general.

When I was last in custody by the Vancouver Police Dept they took
various pictures including one of a footprint on my chest but never
gave it to myself or my lawyer which was detrimental to my case.

Mike Poirier who lives in Burnaby and work for DPS in Vancouver is a

Good luck to anyone trying to learn Hebrew. I am looking for a Hebrew-Gregorian calendar in both Hebrew and English lettering.

I am looking for my missing automobile. Left in the care of Low's Tire (Firestone) on King George Hwy which has since gone out of business. A man who claimed to be a tow truck driver named Jerry (sounded Black) called me and said he had it
but when I called him back he denied it. JVD-968 "89 Plymouth Reliant white with red interior. Devellis in lettering on the rear trunk. Contact me by email or the GRC if you are one of those ppl. Am looking for the address of Dave Reynolds and any info about him. He used to run Low's Tires and since he refuses to answer his email lows...@telus.net I can only assume he is the person who stole my vehicle and the contents in it. I have talked to the new owners and they claim to know nothing.
3P3BK41D9KT921716 is the vin number. John Reynolds still has a valid email lows...@telus.net but refuses to return my inquiries.Any info about this thief is appreciated.

I am also looking for various books and CD's that I have discovered missing. All are marked Greg Carr on the inside cover or somewhere in the CD booklet. $5 reward for each CD and for each book. Will pay $200 for info regarding how they disappeared because I honestly don't know.

A police officer making 60k a year and expected to get pay raises can
easily get a loan for a condo and a luxury car. But this angle should
be investigated.

I just did a quick back of the envelope estimate using 30%
of gross income as maximum mortgage payment, and a person
making $60k per year could get a mortgage for a $500,000
home.

From a financial institution's point of view, a police
officer has a fairly stable income. Chances are, as long as
he does a good job and keeps his nose clean, he has a pretty
secure job. And if he is injured on the job and can no
longer earn a living, I figure he probably has pretty decent
long term disability insurance.

If his condo was purchased for, say, $350K, he'd easily ahve
some room available with a finance company to get a decent
car as well.
