Manitoba Teen Scolded Over Facebook Comments
 
A Manitoba teenager was let off the hook but received a scolding from all sides in court after the 18-year-old mocked and applauded the death of U.S. police officers slain in a shooting last weekend.
 
RCMP arrested the Steinbach man after area residents reported comments he posted to a Facebook page praising the fatal shooting of three officers in Baton Rouge. He praised the shooting and suggested there were still 100 officers to go. Defence lawyer Phil Cramer says his client's comments were stupid but says you can't put people in jail for being stupid.
 
Charges for uttering threats were stayed.

The Supreme Court of Canada Challenges Military Justice System 
 
The Supreme Court of Canada has ruled that the law governing the military justice system is constitutional. The decision means the defence minister will be allowed to appeal the acquittal of a soldier accused of sexually assaulting a female subordinate. Warrant officer Andre Gagnon was found not guilty in 2014 of sexually assaulting a female corporal in 2011.
 
The Defence Department appealed, but Gagnon's lawyers moved to have the appeal quashed -- arguing the National Defence Act is partly unconstitutional.
