____________________________________________________________
We would like to take a minute to correct the blatently obvious that was ignored and readers of the Star were mislead about.
The Registry DID NOT save Mr. Preston’s intended victim.
It was OPP Constable Pham who, in doing his sworn duty, gave his life while attempting to stop Mr. Preston from carrying out any harmful intent inflicted by his episode of mental derangement.
Our apologies to anyone that has been mislead by the above linked article into thinking the Registry actually played a part.
Our humblest gratitude for Cst Pham’s sacrifice for another human being.
