It's unfortunate there is no photo to go along with this news story, could jog a memory of someone who's seen him in their neighborhood, someone to watch out for in future.
Sure nice knowing he's off the street for a while, good work.

slim, nearly two hours...since your post. I`d bet a six pack he`s out by now!!!

You owe me a six pack. Remanded in custody til the 26th, that'll be Canterbury.
Don't think he'll get bail, see what the 26th brings. He'll probably plead out and get time served...............

That's nothing.........Frankie Meerholz was released on the assurances of his brother, Dillon (also GTS), and $5000 bond that he'll turn himself in to be deported on the 31st. You won't believe this one...

Next time these guys "tax" someone or commit another home invasion, I hope karma kicks in, and the house belongs to the idiot that let him out!

This guy needs to go away for a long time.
I maintain that hard labour is the best way to break punks like this of their anti social habits and lifestyle. Minimal comfort, basic rations, a full sentence, and hard physical labour every day they are incarcerated. Refusal to work is rewarded with short rations, solitary confinement, and no laundry service.
I hope that there is enough evidence to put this poor example of manhood into prison, but other than a short period of restricted freedom, what incentive is there in the Canadian prison experience for a chronic offender like this Burger to go straight?
Most of us work hard to get ahead or maintain, and take the straight path, so why should part of our labour (effort) go toward the upkeep of safe, comfortable clubs for crooks, when there is little if any hope of decreasing the rate of recidivism?

Must wear a red Arm Band at all Times, so every one can spot him.

recidivism

That's a Jim Lahey word.

seriously though, the disappointing thing is these people are not very good at what they do (crime) they suck at it.
