They should get the maximum sentance when found guilty for their abuse of tax dollars draging this out for 10 years.

I GUESS IF YOU STRETCH IT OUT LONG ENOUGH PEOPLE MIGHT FORGET. SOME OF US WON'T !

I am more interested in who is responsible for the delay's.

This is a money issue. They didn't kill anyone. What's the hold up? Percy

Surely it wouldn't be political. They didn't only screw the bank, but many of their emplyees also. I'm still waiting for a trial resulting from the raid on the legislature a few years ago. Come on guys, let's get it on. There's not another election to worry about for a few years and hopefully people will forget by the next one.

It goes to show you if you have enough money you can hire the best mouthpiece who will delay this 'little problem' for as long as our mixed up justice system will allow.That, to me, is the real problem, that 'justice' is or can be, so slow in coming. It is our system that permits this to happen. The lawyers are just exploiting the system within the rules. Wait, I forgot, are'nt they the ones who make the rules, ultimately?

I love how all you make accusations without specific knowledge. Cheque Kiting is really no big deal unless someone wants to make a big deal about it. Most people at some point in their life have cheque kited. It sounds bad but what it means is writing a cheque before you get your money deposited. Up until the computer age most people would write cheques (personal or business) then run down to the bank and hope to make a deposit before the cheque was cleared which use to take 3 to 6 days. So if you have a beef make sure it is over something worth talking about. In the Walls case it says it was just over $5000. Whoop Dee doo…
Ain’t it great…

Free enterprise or free fleecing???

It's not the taxpayer, in this case, but those who pay for services and end up having to pay for those who defraud the companies providing those services through the cost of goods and insurance.

From where do you get the notion that it was JUST over $5,000?

I think you need to learn a bit about the law which deals with fraud and theft.

The $5,000 is the dividing line in the Criminal Code of Canada between a serious offense and a very serious offense.

When a person is charged with theft under $5000, he or she is charged under s.334(b)of the Criminal Code of Canada.

If it is an indictable offense rather than a summary offense, then he or she could be sentenced to a prison term of up to two years.

When a person is charged with theft over $5000, as in this case, then he or she is charged under s.334(a). This is an indictable offence and if the person who is charged is found guilty, then he or she could be sentenced to jail for up to ten years.

Whoop Dee doo…... ;-)
