It's not far from here where I live and all the items found in his car is what he needs to survive out there. He's trying to rebuild his shack in the bush after it was burned. About 2 weeks before the G20 Gary was beat up by some locals who took baseball bats to his car breaking the window, so I can understand why he was trying to get it fixed. Everything he owns is in that car. He's living out here in the bush to get away from all the things he can't cope with in the real world. He was in the wrong place at the wrong time. He needs help and getting beat up in prison is not the place for Gary.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17909993.post-57074000632149465772010-10-06T14:01:06.319-07:002010-10-06T14:01:06.319-07:00I think Byron Sonne is still in jail too, having b...I think Byron Sonne is still in jail too, having been denied bail AGAIN in September.

Greg Weston, a truly great reporter since fired from the SunKoryMedia, got a phone number from McCulloch to get a relative to pick up the dog before the pound got there. Click the link "Greg Weston" in the post. <br /><br />Kev : Don't beat yourself up. Any reasonable person reading about this at the time would have expected him to be released already. Something I should have mentioned in the post - we should start writing MPs about this when parliament resumes, put some pressure on even if it is "before the courts".<br /><br />Boris : The problem with quicksand is - the only way out is to lie on the surface and move very slowly.<br />That doesn't seem to be working for us so far. ;-)Alisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09811694143714068436noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17909993.post-7432971715429209452010-09-02T09:12:22.317-07:002010-09-02T09:12:22.317-07:00You're going to think I'm an idiot focussi...You're going to think I'm an idiot focussing on this part of the hideous story but what happened to the dog?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17909993.post-68757550649894953382010-09-01T15:22:49.386-07:002010-09-01T15:22:49.386-07:00Our prisons and cemeteries are full of the mentall...Our prisons and cemeteries are full of the mentally ill, which is what happens when their primary contact with the system is a cop not a doctor.<br /><br />When I read yesterday that he was still in detention I was filled with rage at both myself and society for forgetting about Gary.Kevnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17909993.post-65576625000237387242010-09-01T07:21:14.163-07:002010-09-01T07:21:14.163-07:00Society in quicksand.
