Sorry rkake, but I am with Dave. There are thousands of laws on the books which ones should he choose? Perry's "crime" had no victim. You have to have a "victim" for it to be a crime. Who was Perry's victim? The court? it cannot testify. The judge? how? was his ego hurt? the prosecutor? how was he a victim? Can they testify that they were "damaged?" the laws are supposed to protect our freedom of choice, our families, our homes, our property. We do not protect laws. the laws are to protect us. if the law does not protect us it is no good. Our prisons are full of people with victimless crimes. Where are the laws that should have protected Perry and where and how the H--- do you find them without learning all about the law itself? Are you protecting the "law"? Are you protecting the "system"? If so, you may one day lose all your freedom rights too. I do not agree with you but I will defend your right to believe and say so. It is called FREEDOM By the way "Police officer" is an "office" Perry Dunlop is the living breathing soul whose God given rights and freedoms have been violated under "color of law" and by the way, that laws have to followed whether you like them or not Does that mean the powers that be can make all kinds of laws and we have to obey them? If we do not like the laws, get rid of them and get rid of those law makers who make laws that do not protect the rights of people with victimless crimes. You got a victim? you got a crime. You got no victim? you got no crime. It should be as simple as that. Instead, we have thousands upon thousand of laws, bylaws, ordinances, statutes thrown on us, we the people and there are more coming and forever changing. Please stand up for the individual and not the law or the system They need no protecting 

If Perry had follwoed the law like the other officers did and the police chief at the time this would have all been swept under the rug Perry did the right thing which was to expose what was going on. rkake think of the children for a change instead of the reputations of a few people. If all this stuff had not been brought to light the church still would be shuffling pedophile priests around probation officers would still be molesting probationers lawyers would still be advising to give bribes to hush victims up. Think like a human being instead of like a mindless soldier that obeys every order that is issued by his commander. 

If the police officers had followed the law like they should they would have reported the child abuse crimes to the CAS. Was Police Chief Shaver ever charged for breaking that law no because he is the all knowing all powerful chief of police. The child protection laws supercede any other laws as far as I am concerned.
