Richard: I'm sorry for my clumsy post. I agree that the young lady was treated atrociously. There appears to be two separate issues: How she was treated when she was detained, and the fact that she was detained in the first place. No sensible person would deny that how she was treated is disturbing. It should never have been allowed to happen. But there are those of the opinion that it was reasonable to detain her given the nature of the allegations and the background of the accused. If someone doesn't think she should have been detained regardless, and that is a reasonable position and quite possibly the correct legal opinion, then we have to be honest and accept the consequences. I am by no means a fan-boy of the Canadian judiciary, but I admit it can at times be a very difficult job. No one involved wanted to see this guy back on the street, but perhaps that is what should have happened. We can't, as some people seem to be suggesting, have it both ways.
