On November 6, 2008, in what amounts to an absolute travesty of justice, a low-life scumbag nigger by the name of Rickey Roger Hankey (alias "T from Toronto") walked away from an Ottawa courthouse a free ape after a jury found him not guilty of second-degree murder for stabbing White Ottawa street person Steven Beriault to death. Incredibly, the jury believed Hankey's bullshit claim that he was in danger of being killed or seriously injured when he was confronted and struck twice in the head with a squeegee by Beriault after Hankey had urinated in a Rideau Street pedestrian underpass (where Beriault and his fellow White street urchins were sleeping) at about 12:45 a.m. on June 14, 2006. Before murdering Beriault, Hankey told him that he was going to "fuck his shit up." And that is exactly what he proceeded to do, with gusto and finality.

The nigger in question has no less than 24 previous criminal convictions (for reasons only the judge can explain, the jury was only allowed to hear about 10) and has spent 12 of his 37 years in jail. His criminal record includes a two-year jail sentence in 1991 for stabbing an undercover Toronto police officer, four convictions for drug trafficking, four assault convictions, and one conviction for uttering threats. It was just a matter of time before this sociopath killed someone. Since the murder, Hankey has also been charged with carrying a concealed weapon, after officials at the Lindsay jail near Kawartha Lakes found a knife hidden in his rectum (having stabbed one innocent person to death, you can see that this animal has really learned his lesson).

Under long-established common law precedent a person has a right to self-defence, but the defender may only use such force as is necessary to fend off the attack and preserve his life and physical well-being. The case presently in question initially amounted to little more than a fistfight provoked by the uncouth, animalistic behaviour of the accused, who had urinated in the sleeping area of some White street people. The chief crime of the deceased was that he apparently used the dreaded "N" word ("nigger") while swatting Hankey with a "deadly weapon," a squeegee. Far from being scared for his life, Hankey simply did what a lot of niggers do when physically confronted for their outrageous behaviour: he chimped-out and killed the honkey. No big deal. Business as usual.

You can imagine what the verdict would have been if the situation had been reversed and it was evil Whiteman Beriault who killed poor, oppressed, innocent Negro gentleman Hankey. Beriault would have been more or less automatically convicted and sentenced to life in prison (plus an additional 100 years for the "hate crime" offence of using the dreaded "N" word, which is really what this case is all about). Call a nigger a nigger, or get into a physical confrontation with one, and he/it has the right to kill you. This is the degree to which Liberal political correctness has been taken in this country.

So this murdering asshole Hankey today walks the streets a free chimp. A classic example of the Canadian justice system in action. Talk about disgusting. I am convinced that the only thing that is going to cure this disease is armed insurrection/revolution by the White people of this country. There is no peaceful cure for rot this pervasive and deep. When the Day of the Rope comes, the absolute first to climb the gallows will be the White race traitors who have sold their fellow Whitemen out. I can hardly wait.

OTTAWA - A man who testified he stabbed Ottawa street person Steven Beriault to death in self-defence walked away from Ottawa's courthouse a free man Thursday night after a jury found him not guilty of second-degree murder.

Rickey Roger Hankey grasped lawyer Matt Webber's hand after the foreman of the five-man, seven-woman jury read out the verdict after more than 12 hours of deliberations over two days.

"Mr. Hankey, you have been acquitted of the charge," said Ontario Superior Court Justice Antoine de Lotbinière Panet as the 37-year-old contractor stood for the last time in the prisoner's box where he had watched the four-week trial unfold.

Moments later, Mr. Hankey held a hand over his face and fought back tears as each of the 12 jurors stood up and repeated the words "not guilty." Clutching a tissue, one of jurors stared at Mr. Hankey and cried, while others' eyes moistened as the emotion from the verdict sank in.

"I'm feeling relieved. I feel like the fight's over, the nightmare's gone," said an emotional Mr. Hankey, as he embraced Mr. Webber and his co-counsel Michael Spratt outside the Elgin Street courthouse.

"I wanted to hear it from each person. I don't want to just hear it from one person. I want everyone to believe I'm not guilty," said Mr. Hankey.

But while Mr. Hankey celebrated, Mr. Beriault's mother lashed out in anger and disbelief, accusing the justice system of failing her 21-year-old son.

"It doesn't make sense he is not guilty of anything," said Marie Beriault, fighting back tears as she spoke from her Gatineau home last night. "He killed my son and that guy is walking the streets."

Ms. Beriault, who avoided Mr. Hankey's murder trial because she didn't think she could bear to hear the graphic details of her son's final moments, said she loved her son dearly and has spent the past two-and-a-half years living in "pain" without him. Police told her last night that prosecutors intend to launch an appeal of the acquittal, she said.

"I'm mad," she said. "What's wrong? Where's the justice here?"

The jury believed that Mr. Hankey feared he would be killed or seriously injured when he was confronted and struck twice in the head with a squeegee by Mr. Beriault after Mr. Hankey urinated in a Rideau Street pedestrian underpass at about 12:45 a.m. on June 14, 2006.

Mr. Hankey testified he was surrounded and attacked by several street people who kicked and punched him in the head, chanting "you're dead, nigger, you're dead" while a menacing pitbull-type dog growled and barked as it struggled to join the fight.

Mr. Hankey testified he took the knife that he would eventually use to kill Mr. Beriault, who was known by the nickname Cactus, from one of his attackers before blindly lashing out at the group until they were no longer striking him.

Mr. Hankey, who has a lenghty criminal record, said he never went to police after the stabbing because he didn't think they'd believe his story of self-defence.

While the jury heard about 10 of Mr. Hankey's previous convictions, they didn't hear about a further 14 convictions, including a two-year jail sentence in 1991 for stabbing an undercover Toronto police officer. His record also included four convictions for drug trafficking as well as four additional assault charges and one of uttering threats.

In total, Mr. Hankey had been sentenced to more than 12 years in jail over the course of his lifetime. Since the homicide, Mr. Hankey has also been charged with carrying a concealed weapon, after officials at the Lindsay jail near Kawartha Lakes allegedly found a knife hidden in his rectum.

Prosecutors argued it was never a one-on-one fight, however, and that Mr. Hankey was the one who drew the knife after allegedly telling Mr. Beriault he would "f--- his s--- up."

The stories of the three eyewitnesses the prosecution built their case around were plagued by troubling inconsistencies, however, and their descriptions of the attack created doubt as to what actually happened.

One of the witnesses admitted he lied to police in an attempt to get Mr. Hankey into more trouble, while a second testified he was a former white supremicist who was part of a gang who once beat a black man for sport.

Two others denied participating in the fight even though they had suffered fresh injuries in close proximity to the time Mr. Beriault died, and several admitted that they, and possibly Mr. Beriault, used racial epithets.

But it was the testimony of an unlikely defence witness - one of Mr. Beriault's friends - that breathed life into Mr. Hankey's version of events.

Despite admitting he'd like to see Mr. Hankey "rot in hell," Jeremy Baldwin told the jury that he saw at least one of the Crown witnesses, Martin Gauvin, repeatedly punch Mr. Hankey in the head before Mr. Beriault was stabbed.

Mr. Baldwin, who was arrested on a Canada-wide arrest warrant and only brought back to Ottawa to testify in the middle of the trial, also told the jury he took the muzzle off his dog, Hobo, when he feared Mr. Hankey might come at him.

At the same time, Mr. Webber painted a portrait of Mr. Beriault as a prolific street fighter prone to violent outbursts who would beat down bigger men with his fists, feet and squeegee when he felt he or his friends had been disrespected.

To drive home the point, the defence's final witness, Joshua Barber, testified that Mr. Beriault and another man beat and robbed him under another nearby bridge only 11 days before the homicide.

"It's a proper and just verdict," said Mr. Webber outside of court on Thursday. "It was the right verdict. It would have been wrong to come back with anything else."

Mr. Webber said he believed it was "absurd" to suggest the evidence established anything but that Mr. Hankey was attacked by numerous people and a dog.

"The witnesses' stories did not add up, and they didn't add up because they weren't telling the truth," said Mr. Webber.

"Mr. Hankey was telling the truth and the jury saw that."
