The pig farmer...

So Robert Pickton has been ruled guilty. Is anyone in Canada surprised? He's been found guilty (so far) on six counts of second-degree murder.

Interestingly, according to an article in The Ottawa Citizen that quotes from a letter he wrote, Pickton said he did it because God told him to rid the world of evil.

The levels of irony in the comment amuse me.

It seems horrific that the law makes deals with killers in exchange for the truth. It's like - justice loses, whatever the outcome.

Yes. Someone needs to come up with a way (other than torture) to make criminals give the information that the law needs other than bargaining away the punishment those criminals deserve.

Too bad nobody's invented fast penta yet...

Yeah. Fast penta would help a lot.
