Would they keep him in Alberta or BC if he has a negative history in both provinces? Or would they choose somewhere neutral...Sk/Ont?

I think he'll go wherever there is space and appropriate facilities

And as his defence team mentioned, he has nobody who he has contact with so it's not like visits from friends or family would be a consideration.

He may end up with Bernardo. Russell Williams is there too. I think Michael Rafferty as well. It's the perfect place for DG (I can't bring myself to even write his name). I think this particular Pen was outfitted with a special section for the likes of these "special cases".
I just hope that at some point, when he least expects it, a guard inadvertently turns his back and DG gets what's so deserving.
He is evil. He deserves to go where evil goes and I'll leave it at that.
Not sure why, but I think the victim impact statements, have sent me in a new direction of rage tonight.

$151,484 - annual cost of a prisoner in maximum security
And that's from 2014. What a waste.

I get to service those vile inmates regularly at my place of work. I can promise that if Dougie ever walked in here needing our attention, I'd have a hell of a time remaining professional and not saying something wildly inappropriate.

I thought Allen was son of Alvin (brother-in-law of DG)? Unless Alvin's twin brother has the same name as Alvin's son?
Somehow I think he would get a thrill out of being in the same place as Bernardo. although it may have just been the gore of bernardo's crimes he was interested in and not the killer himself.

The family in their statement already said they weren't happy with some actions of the media. This is not surprising. They overstep a lot of the time I'm surprised this doesn't happen more often.

I've finally had a chance to read through the posts from earlier today.
I have nothing new or profound to say, but I want to post something for my own "therapeutic" reasons. I need to vent.
1) First, I am so dang mad at the defence for picking away at the victims' impact statements. :maddening: How dare they take what little control and input the victims' family members have in this horrific case. They should be ashamed. And to think that DG was given an opportunity to read them....that's just pouring salt on the raw wounds.
2) The defence statement that DG was all alone now is laughable. Of course he is all alone now. His poor family is devastated. They pleaded with him to confess, but, no, he didn't care for anyone; not the victims, not the victims' family and not his own family. Why would he expect NOT to be alone. Isn't that what he likes?
3) Per Justice Gates, neither the defense or DG offered any expression of remorse.(Let alone emotion by DG.) My sympathy is hard to come by here. And yet later Gates thanks the lawyers - both sides. I'm not thinking the defense should be thanked based on their behaviour today.
4) I'm going to wake up tomorrow morning. I presume (and hope!) that my spouse and my sons will be there, smiling and joking with me. My sons are young adults now. I had the most wonderful opportunity to watch them grow up. The O'Briens have had that stolen from them. I wish them strength and love. I will never forget them. I will never forget Luke. I will never forget Nancy and her son. I will never forget DG's parents (and sister) who have to live with the understanding of the horror their son has wreaked.
5) This is Family Day weekend in a number of Canadian provinces. Hug your loved ones. I sure will.
Hugs to all.

And this:
Kim Ross, Garland's lawyer, says the sentence was not a surprise and that he spoke to his client on Friday afternoon.
"It wasn't totally unexpected. I think we anticipated that this might be the result but, like I said, we want to take some time and review it and, you know, just digest the whole process," he said. "I went down and I spoke with him briefly and, as I said, I don't think theres anything that wasnt anticipated so, as I said, we're going to take some time and I'll, we'll speak to him some time in the future."

I'm interested to know what his client said. For more than 2 years we have yet to hear a single word he has said.
