Initiate an appeal of Justice for Cindy Gladue
Initiate an appeal of Justice for Cindy Gladue
The Issue
Earlier this week Ontario resident Bradley Barton was acquitted in the murder of Cindy Gladue, an Aboriginal sex worker. Gladue died four years ago, in a hotel bathtub in Edmonton. Barton is the one who called it in. He told 911 operators that he’d found an unknown woman dead in his hotel bathroom, but CCTV later revealed that Barton and Gladue had spent time together over the previous two evenings. In court, Barton pleaded that her death was accidental, a result of rough sex. Gladue bled to death, caused by an eleven-centimetre stab wound along the right side of her vagina. Acting chief medical examiner Graeme Dowling testified that considerable force would have been needed to cause the wound.
No one consents to that level of violence. Gladue, in fact, was not in form to consciously consent to anything — toxicology reports showed her blood alcohol level was four times the legal driving limit. The Jury of 2 women and 9 men majority of them "White" took only a day and a half to come to their decision.
Cindy Gladue had a life. She also had a story ,She was a Mother ,A Sister and Someones Daughter.
Cindy was a gift from the creator and she deserves Justice !
