Taylor regained consciousness and came at him with a knife. Judge Dillon said Mr. Family members and friends of the victim gasped in disbelief when Mr. Judge Dillon concluded that Greg Brotherston took part in the attack on Mr. Taylor, but used no more force than "necessary to prevent the continuing assault" on his father. The evidence supporting second-degree murder charges against Ken Jr. She also acquitted the younger Brotherstons of assaulting witnesses who tried to stop the attack.
Judge Dillon noted that the ability of several key Crown witnesses to accurately recall evidence was compromised by chronic cocaine use and a lack of sleep in the days before Mr. Taylor's death. Brotherston's testimony, by contrast, had no major inconsistencies and was "corroborated on many crucial details," she said. If you weren't deliberately choosing the crudest and most ill informed comments to print, I can assure you that some of these opinions would find no forum anywhere.
Whatever the outcome of the trial, it is not for the amusement of a gossip site. If you are really internet reporters then you should step up your ethics a little. Otherwise, you will be perceived as idiots and any credibility that you might have for your environmental and social issues will evaporate. Smarten up!! Must be a lot of people who know much more about this story than is published in the media. Based on the information that has been provided, I don't know how one comes to the conclusion that Taylor was the "bad guy" unless you consider anyone who uses drugs worthless and deserving of a beating.
Based on my reading of the reports this is what I think happened: Ken Jr goes to Taylor's house as a concerned citizen to try and pursuade him to stop using drugs and to be a productive member of the community. Taylor is incensed and threatens Jr with ridicule unless Jr pays him hush money. Jr hooks up with Greg and Dad to decide what to do. After ample consideration at a local pub, the three of them decide to return to Taylor's house thinking that if they all of them spoke nicely to Taylor he would mend his ways.
Incensed, Taylor pulls his loaded gun and fires a couple of rounds. Sr, doing one of those superhero Ninja things, avoids the bullets and tackles Taylor disarming him. Sr pleads with Taylor one more time to push the cocaine devil out of his body and when Taylor is unable to do so, Sr uses his fists to try and help. I am glad that we have people like the Brotherstons to help do the Lord's work and make our community a better one for all.
So the TC reports today that Taylor was a strung out, long term drug abuser based on blood test results. If the Brotherstons had previously had a run in with the guy then why would one go to his house in the first place and then all three of them return knowin that he is armed? Anonymous Answer is simple. The truth is that the Brotherstons have criminal records and are known to police. Erica and Ken Sr. So if someone killed the brotherstons would that be ok because they were just no good murderers?
WTF seriously there are some f'ed up people in Langford and I despise it more and more every day. I grew up there in a time when it had a much worse reputation but in fact it was a quiet safe place that I enjoyed growing up in. I'm all for standing up for your family but they went way to far.
How many drug addicts are actually dangerous? Most of them are just extremely unreliable. These days the rednecks have a lot more money and some sort of superiority complex. Completely uneducated people. Now that MSM is already looking elsewhere for a buzz. This need a very bright light kept on it. Seems like the prosecution is making little effort to have their case stick. Talk about using kid gloves. A deal must have been cut and this is all for show.
My prediction is manslaughter at best for Sr. If all drug user or dealers should die then what about the Brotherston Boys? They are also Coc heads! I also think that at least an assault charge should have been laid.
Ken Sr has been a thug since high school. Is this fraud too big to fail? Only if weighed by the pound. So many other variables now come into play here, beyond the chasm between law and justice, the court of public opinion, street justice, the flip side, the law of unintended consequences.
Stayed tuned, since the reality is that none of us knows what Corleone REALLY means by that quote to the reporter "I just want to get back to a 'normal' life. Police also alleged that Brotherston Sr. The incident - if it happened -wasn't captured on video cameras. No charges were laid. The contrived story line the defence "banked" on was what society thinks constitutes "credibility". The ones with influence are deemed credible by proxy.
If this was a level playing field, either all crackheads involved or else none of them would be credible, including the ones in suits. Jebby said: "These days the rednecks have a lot more money and some sort of superiority complex. During the controversial Spencer Rd Interchange council meetings, I was astounded by the number of old Langford developers,businesspeople, construction workers etc I do believe it is going to take a turn over in leadership to clean up the Westshore's reputation of being stuck in the backwoods of Redneck City.
We need educated, modern, eloquent and respectful leaders to truly represent the people of the Westshore Hopefully," Boss Hog" Mayors, "pioneer" families like the Brotherstons and nouveau riche rednecks will not be our only legacy.
So, if you want to kill someone, just make sure to take the leftovers to your nearest RCMP station, and say you were provoked. No problem. Brotherston Sr. His story was credible only to the judge. The sons should be kept an eye on as there was no lesson learned in this trial. I knew Keith, and the Brotherstons. You can leave a response , or trackback from your own site.
