A local guns and gangs case ends in two acquittals and one unsolved homicide. ⇒

   5 November 2009, mid-afternoon

Michael was doing a project on the court system for the community group CELOS. “By far the most interesting story I followed was a guns and gangs case that began with the arrest of three young men in March 2008 and ended on July 15 of this year with acquittals of two of the accused, Isahaq Omar, 27, and Keane Webb, 22. The third man, Ryan Rowe-Reid, 20, couldn’t be in court for the very compelling reason that he is dead, killed in a shootout in Scarborough on August 10, 2008.” This is definitely worth a read.

Some things to keep in mind: You can style comments using Textile. In particular, *text* will get turned into text and _text_ will get turned into text. You can post a link using the command "linktext":link, so something like "google":http://www.google.com will get turned in to google. I may erase off-topic comments, or edit poorly formatted comments; I do this very rarely.
