    I did wonder if that was what you meant ... but given that the thread was about the Couchman pay out I decided that you were probably referring to the particular case.

    My apologies for being wrong ...[/QUOTE]

Bell has convictions for dishonesty and theft) Corrections encouraged him to work in an environment where he was surrounded by temptation ... so sure, Bell's a crim - but Corrections put him in the path of temptation ..
    My way of thinking is that is she gets compensation for the corrections stuffing up, (resulting in a crime being committed against her), then both statements are true ( compensation for corrections stuffing up is compensation for being victim of a crime)

    I feel it is now timely to think about the next likely corse of action.... The families of the deceased claiming for what they can..... The precident is now there.

    I still say if they want to blame someone, blame the parents of Bell and the socitey that somehow
    Allowed him to think this was somehow OK

    Oh, and for the record, Yes corrections STAFF made a monumental stuff up, not the ministry, until this happened I suspect the only officials that knew he even existed where the police and his caseworkers.

    Sue his caseworker that placed him there if you have to.
