He was sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole for 25 years minimum. He was designated a 'dangerous offender' which means it is unlikely he will ever be released. in 2018, he was denied parole after passing the 25 year mark. ]]> 2019-04-08 20:40:31 UTC https://padlet.com/breahbeazer/CriminalLaw/wish/349710261 References - alphabetical breahbeazer https://padlet.com/breahbeazer/CriminalLaw/wish/349715975           Butts, E.

Karla Homolka was released from her 12 year prison sentence in 2005. she was tried in 1993, 2 years before her husband. what prosecutors didn't know at the time, however, was that Paul Bernardo had instructed his lawyer, Ken Murray, to hide videotapes depicting the brutal rape, torture, and murder of their victims. those videotapes were evidence that Karla played a bigger role than originally thought by prosecutors, but by  the time they were discovered, Karla had already been convicted so there was nothing they could do.

What are you most likely to remember from this research?
I feel like I have a better understanding of the differences between the different levels of murder, and of sexual assault through my research. I also know a lot of the gruesome details and facts of R v Bernardo and R v Homolka now, haven't decided if that's a good thing or not. ]]> 2019-04-08 21:29:54 UTC https://padlet.com/breahbeazer/CriminalLaw/wish/349721292 The Scarborough Rapist breahbeazer https://padlet.com/breahbeazer/CriminalLaw/wish/349728261 In the case  R v Bernardo, the two counts of first-degree murder and two counts of aggravated sexual assault against Paul Bernardo were for the brutal killings of Leslie Mahaffy and Kristen French. he was ultimately only convicted of raping and murdering those two girls, but he has allegedly assaulted at least 50 others (he has also taken credit for several of the assaults attributed to the Scarborough Rapist). He had also confessed to teaming up with his then-girlfriend, Karla Homolka, in order to drug and rape her sister Tammy. This later resulted in her death, but the couple, dubbed the schoolgirl killers, were just getting started. ]]> 2019-04-08 22:09:43 UTC https://padlet.com/breahbeazer/CriminalLaw/wish/349728261 Karla Homolka breahbeazer https://padlet.com/breahbeazer/CriminalLaw/wish/349731450 Karla Homolka was Paul Bernardo's wife. She was tried before him, and plead guilty as part of a plea bargain, to two counts of manslaughter in the Mahaffy and French murders. Her sentencing took place in 1993, before Paul Bernardo's. She testified against him as part of her bargain with the crown. ]]> 2019-04-08 22:33:13 UTC https://padlet.com/breahbeazer/CriminalLaw/wish/349731450 Global News: Bernardo seeks day parole breahbeazer https://padlet.com/breahbeazer/CriminalLaw/wish/349740396 2019-04-08 23:39:15 UTC https://padlet.com/breahbeazer/CriminalLaw/wish/349740396 Man watches Karla Homolka on TV breahbeazer https://padlet.com/breahbeazer/CriminalLaw/wish/349740689 CBC]]> 2019-04-08 23:40:39 UTC https://padlet.com/breahbeazer/CriminalLaw/wish/349740689 Ken Murray breahbeazer https://padlet.com/breahbeazer/CriminalLaw/wish/349745674 Paul Bernardo's first lawyer was eventually charged for hiding the evidence and obstructing justice. ]]> 2019-04-09 00:10:13 UTC https://padlet.com/breahbeazer/CriminalLaw/wish/349745674 Timeline of events breahbeazer https://padlet.com/breahbeazer/CriminalLaw/wish/349747107 CBC]]> 2019-04-09 00:17:46 UTC https://padlet.com/breahbeazer/CriminalLaw/wish/349747107 Psychology behind the schoolgirl killer breahbeazer https://padlet.com/breahbeazer/CriminalLaw/wish/349747756 Toronto Sun ]]> 2019-04-09 00:20:41 UTC https://padlet.com/breahbeazer/CriminalLaw/wish/349747756 More References breahbeazer https://padlet.com/breahbeazer/CriminalLaw/wish/349749395            Criminal Code (R.S.C., 1985, c.
