Monsters Who Stab Children Should Stay in Jail

Monsters Who Stab Children Should Stay in Jail

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Ottawa, ON – Chris Warkentin, Conservative Deputy Whip and Member of Parliament for Grande Prairie, released the following statement on Alice Michael Attwood’s release from custody after stabbing two children:

“The Carney-Trudeau Liberals’ disastrous catch-and-release policies have made Canadians unsafe. 35-year-old Alice Michael Attwood of Grande Prairie stabbed two children on February 19, with one needing to be airlifted to the Stollery Hospital in Edmonton for emergency surgery to address the child’s severed esophagus.

“Two days later, Attwood was free to return home and livestream himself playing video games on his YouTube channel while one of the children faces months on a feeding tube, and the remainder of the family must try to find ways to ensure their children’s safety.

“This is unacceptable. Monsters like Alice Michael Attwood should not be allowed to roam around our streets just two days after stabbing two children. But the Carney-Trudeau Liberals introduced Bills C-5 and C-75, which allows monsters like Attwood back into our neighbourhoods on bail and house arrest, instead of rotting in a prison cell where they belong. Conservatives will repeal those laws.

“This cannot continue. Canadians deserve a Common Sense Conservative government who will end the Liberals’ insane catch-and-release policies, stop the crime and ensure that monsters who stab children are kept in jail.
