Last night, I almost had my third heart attack. The person that was the mastermind (CLICK ME) behind TJ Wiebe's murder is back in Winnipeg! I was shopping at Home Depot in St. Vital, and was pushing my cart of 2 X 4's merrily down the aisle. I see his mother first, and then right beside her was the murderer. I had no idea what to do, in fact it was the first time in my life that I actually felt that I would faint. My stomach turned, I almost threw up. I questioned myself, what do I do, how do I react, should I allow him to see me, should I leave my cart and leave the store, etc etc etc.
I peered around the corner several times, trying to assess what I should do, and suddenly they disappeared in an instant. I am pretty sure they saw me as, well, I am hard to miss. I paid for my wood, and sat in my truck, waiting for them to leave. WHY did I do that? I have no idea. I had no idea what I would do if I saw them leave. I called my kids and Karen, and my daughter came flying down to support me in my what to do mode. We left without seeing them. I guess the sight of me scared them out of the store, although I am only guessing.
I had heard that he left for the United States immediately after he was acquitted from his 1st Degree Murder and Conspiracy to Commit Murder. He was acquitted, because Justice Joan McKelvey tossed out all the co-conspirator's video-taped confessions of their own involvement and his involvement, and as a result, she stated, ...Although I conclude that "murderer" was involved in the planning and the murder of TJ Wiebe, I cannot convict him as there is no evidence left to support it... DUH! Interestingly enough these very tapes were enough to convict three others of murder or conspiracy or both, yet in her eyes they were not enough to convince her that the ONLY person that knew TJ, was in fact guilty. Three other judges refused to allow the murderer out on bail because of the mountain of evidence, and that he was a danger to society. But the trial judge, released him. At least he spent 32 months in the Youth Centre.
I was talking to a friend (who's son was also murdered) about this and she said something very interesting to me, something that I had never really thought of. She said that with most homicides, once the trial is done, there is no more reporting on the murder. Especially if the murderer is acquitted. With the TJ's Gift Gala and The TJs Gift Foundation, with all the radio ads, the newspaper ads, newspaper articles, the website, this murderer is constantly reminded what he did and what he got away with. That being said, if he is a sociopath, which I believe he is, it would have no impact whatsoever.
Anyway, I hope I don't have a repeat of this...
