Mr. N.S. receives 33 months....

[pinhead]

Did he get charged at the provincial or federal level (if that makes a difference?)

[Kronis]

The powers that be are saying that in this case the child porn was insignificant however given the current climate concerning the offence they had to hand him a token sentence for it. Two months is a nearly freebie and two months concurrent is just about a pass. This was all about the steroids.

They didn't have to nail him on the procedes of crime and seize his assets (he was getting a lengthy incarceration term) UNLESS they wanted to set a precedent AND they have their eyes sighted on bigger fish. Mr. Tanner didn't really own **** all and housing prices in NS are not like they are in other parts of Canada.

So asset forfeiture and significant incarceration for schedule 4 substances (or schedule f or whatever they are calling them these days). Hmmm???

I known of many WITH previous records, charged with what this community believed was far more serious offences, who received less time and no attempt at asset seizure. Some of those offences were drug related, extortion or weapons.

I'm assuming if he only got 2 months for the child porn it was probably just some jailbait pics they came across while searching his computer for steroid info. Keep in mind I'm 100% speculating here, they just tend to be a little more serious and public about catching people with nasty stuff.

As for the seizure of assets I think that's more to do with the money laundering...the govn't loves them some tax dollars and not collecting on every ****ing penny really pisses them off.

As for the "$400,000 in steroids" I've gotta assume that was based on massively inflated per dose prices. I can't see someone sitting on roughly 4000 bottles of gear.

I think where he really ****ed himself was shipping stuff to the states. International drug trafficking is not taken lightly.

You do provincial prison if your term is less then 2 years minus a day. Federal prison for terms above 2 yeas.

This is correct. For things like schedule IV trafficking I believe they are hybrid, meaning they can be tried as summary convictions or indictable offenses; 2 years less a day vs 2 years or more, respectively .

Wow.

All of you guys talk so much shit on here its unreal. If you only knew who you were talking to half the time you would smarten up real quick. Just because someone doesn't have a lot of posts doesn't mean he's new to the scene.

Keep flapping your mouths, you look retarded. Its really all most of you are good at.

Bunch of internet drug dealers that think they are cool behind a computer screen that couldn't hack it in the real world. What you are doing is illegal and comes with consequences. You talk so freely about everything like no one is watching or cares about juice. Give your head a shake times have changed and those who change with the times will be around and those who don't will go bye bye.


This is directed at no one in particular.

You are absolutely right and I plead guilty of being an a--hole... My apologies to the original poster. He was correct and I was wrong. Also my apologies to Kronis as well. I shouldn't have gone off the handle at him regardless of what his response to mine was. From now on if I have something that isn't appropriate to say I will do it in a PM...

Again, my apologies..

wrong time of the month. My wife acts the same way..Hey maybe that is my wife .....honey is that you

[MuSuLPhReAk]

I'm glad you guys calmed down.


Now to what's happened. It's pretty serious as BBB said. This involved no recs and no weapons. The only thing to clearly state though is that the majority of the sentencing would logically be for the import/export charge. That would be the most serious offence. Trafficking etc is another. That is what he got jailed for.

Popping a dbol pill won't land you in jail...BUUUUT....how you go about obtaining it might land you in hot water. Stay safe and don't do anything illegal is the best advice I can give you guys. Check out my canadian steroid laws thread if you haven't already. It's a sticky in this forum.

As for UG labs. They know the risk and the consequence now.

As for CBB, this site is for informational use. Freedom of speech allows you to speak about things like steroids. What is not allowed is to obtain them through the site or conspire to obtain. I have repeated this for years now. Don't put yourself, the board, or myself at risk. Use common sense now.
