Prince George, B.C.- A young man accused of being tied to the Game Tight Soldiers and the Renegades in Prince George, and who is facing deportation, has been arrested again by RCMP.
 
Francois Meerholz was arrested last Friday morning when RCMP investigated a complaint about a possible theft in progress, in the parking lot of a Central East motel.
 
At the time of the arrest Police allege Meerholz was in possession of break-in tools.
 
Meerholz is facing deportation and had been released in the custody of his brother Dillon in January as the deportation process continued. ( see previous story)
 
At a special hearing held Tuesday, the Canada Border Services Agency requested that in the wake of the latest allegations, Meerholz  remain in custody until his deportation.
 
Meerholz requested   the matter be put over for one week, and was granted that extension. In the meantime, he remains in custody.
 
23 year old Meerholz  came to Prince George from South Africa when he was just eleven.   He was initially ordered deported in November of 2007 after being convicted of criminal charges. He is also facing seven firearms charges which have yet to come before the courts.

Why is this clown still here?
hahahahahahhahaha
I like the part where it says "Meerholz requested the matter be put over for one week, and was granted that extension"

He is in charge of what is going on here... We NEED a total revamp on our system! He should be thrown out on the next plane, boat, whatever outta here!
Call up the charter company and ship the scumbag back.
Yeah, going to the press and saying he was a changed man and wanted to do good things was a total crock of $@$#. To all the people that are begging to have this guy stay (the people commenting in the citizen) I think he just totally rubbed your faces in your words. He has no respect and this proves it. GET OUT OF CANADA and don't let the door hit you where the good lord split you.
I can't believe this guy hasn't been deported yet. What a joke!
remember that bimbo in the citizen comments who defended this goof over and over with likr 50 comments.where is the she now?.douche
Canadians.....

We're too damn nice and foreigners know it... that's why they come here.

Deported in 2007 and he's still here?

Great example Canada!

K... I gotta go pay my (rising) taxes now!
Not a productive citizen, for sure.
Get him out of Canada.
metalman.
He's a loser.
I think he should be chained to the Immigration and Refugee Board adjudicator, Daphne Shaw Dyck, who released him from custody into the "care" of his brother cause she didn't believe he was a gang member even though the cops said he was.
Its about time she was held accountable for her decisions, cause she has made some questionable ones before this.

I thought Dillon was supposed to go to court in Feb for possession charges......how does that work? Go to court and have custody or your gangster brother?

Frankie was supposed to check in with a CBSA officer EVERY day........has that been happening?

There are still a lot of questions left to be answered.
There should be an enquiry into Daffy Shaw Dyck maybe she is working for kaoss she is sure not working for me.
there prob informants..how else can they get off for 7 firearms charges
haha i laugh at all you who judge a book by its cover. Maybe this guy is a good person within but the world around him has made him not himself? so instead of judging everyone like retards how about we start praying for people like this so they can start to see what truly matters in life?
usethaname451 - Someone who is not a resident of this country and is contributing to crime should be deported. I don't think it's judging a book by it's cover, it's looking at the evidence provided and saying that we don't want someone like that in Canada. What I will be praying for is a speedy return to SA for him. He was breaking into cars allegedly while trying to prove he deserved to be here. Stop blaming the world, everyone has choices, he made the wrong ones and must face the concequences. I am tired of all these people coming out of the wood work when he gets into trouble and saying he's a "good person". Maybe he is a nice guy, but breaking the law is just that, he needs to go. And if you want anyone to take your comment seriously, calling us all "retards" is not a good way to go about it.
Pray for him all you want. The only cure for him is to get him off our streets, either in jail or in south africa...and the sooner the better.
Prayer is a last resort for the weak willed and weak minded.
@ usethaname..I'm not going to bash you for praying for this guy. I find that very big of you. However, I don't know how you can state that most posters are judging a book by it's cover. He has been in court on more than one occasion for his crimes. Has promised to the courts he will change and wants another chance. He has been caught again so I think he is showing what a piece of garbage he really is. So laugh all you want but you just made several people laugh at you by your comment you posted. I "pray" he never breaks into your home or your vehicle.
Our Canadian laws are sometimes way too soft (in some ways). Here we have a scumbag in our city and he`s like a virus. Hard to get rid of. Let`s make an example of him, give him a leaky dinghy and a paddle and send him back to SA.
If we were to go to South Africa and break the law there, I`m pretty sure we wouldn`t last long.
Deportation should mean deportation. Quit piddling around and get him out of here.
It's not so easy folks. Remember he has a copy of our Charter of Rights in his back pocket. Thanks to Mr. Singh, the judge a while back. Where's the "notwithstanding" clause when ya need it?
just send the idiot back to africa seriously i will paddle him over there myself with a rubber dingy if i have too
well ill tell you all small minded people right now, that this wolrd is never gonna change until we start changing the people causing the problems instead of just getting rid of them.
When have we ever "just got rid of them"? He's had warning after warning. He chose his fate.

I agree with huh?, it is not like this was his first mistake. He's been making them for years and even when he swore that he was changed and wanted another chance he gets caught breaking into cars. What would you have us do, take in all the troubled people of the world and coddle them and heal them? Maybe we do need to reach out to youths more, but let's just deal with the ones that are residents of this country first. I stand firm in believing that he needs to go, I know I am not alone in thinking this way. And in no way does that make any of us small minded. Thank you and good night.
Here is the problem. SA doesn't want him back because he is a scumbag.

Yes just get rid of him usethaname451 or maybe he can move in with your family or he already is your family.
lol i dont even know the guy, i just get angry when people judge and dont realize whats really going on with the battle inside us all, and if you wernt small minded you woulda realized that i was using him as an example in my last statement that problems are never gonna go away until we start helping the people with the problems but nah your just too quick to judge. you all think you know whats up lol, you have no idea whats really goin on in this planet do you?
Sure we do, the intellectuals are getting stupid. That is why we don't have capital punishment in this country and our jails coddle the criminals....and some poor mixed up souls think we should pray for them and turn the other cheek....
Well said Jim! Off with him.No good is no good. Not our responsability to deal with this cull as a Canadian. Send him home where they have a better handle on how to deal with their own.
