Cliff Tang is on his third arrest for driving while suspended from driving after killing a pedestrian in 2000.
So once again it seems Provincial and Federal laws meant to protect us, pretty much are seen as inconvienient guidelines, ignored by offenders and Judges alike in British Columbia.
Taxpayers paid good money to have their wishes known by having elected officials of both Provincial and Federal governments to have laws on the books to clearly state jail terms for offenders and repeat offenders yet Judges once again refuse to enforce them. If Judges ignore them, then offenders will do the same. Case in point, this is Cliffy's third arrest for driving under suspension, lucky for us no one was killed, but if Cliffy did kill again, one can only assume Judges would not be held accountable after releasing him after his second arrest. Now on his third arrest, will bail be granted of will he go straight to the slammer. I am betting in the latter.
My Final Thought
Now Public Readers should ask themselves will Elected Judges better serve British Columbians who will listen to it's citizens, rather than politically appointed Judges who seem unclear on the concept of crime and punishment, when the Laws of this Country are ignored by them?
A Burnaby man has been arrested for driving while disqualified for the second time since he was convicted of killing a pedestrian during a street race in 2000.Kwok Kei Victor Tang, who also goes by the name Cliff Tang, was remanded in custody and will appear in Richmond Provincial Court on Thursday to face charges of wilful obstruction of a peace officer as well as driving while prohibited.
He was arrested Sunday after Richmond RCMP stopped him for driving a car without a front licence plate. Tang then gave police false information about his identity and his address, police said.
