The way I see it is with all these brief appearances are for many reasons. To determine if the case is still ongoing, whether further investigation is being done, a chance the accused may enter a different plea, that the lawyers are continuing to work on the case, work is being carried out in a timely manner, each appearance allows the defense to request further disclosure from the Crown, which if I'm not mistaken cannot be done without it passing through the court system first. Yes the wheels of justice do turn slow and sometimes unfairly. I have complete faith in this case that the legal system will be as fair as legally possible.
Next month will be the one year anniversary of Tim's murder. Seems like yesterday I read in the MSM about Tim's disappearance and hoped as everyone else did, we would sooner than later get much appreciated and relieving great news he had been found safe and sound, back home with his loving family. Unfortunately others had devious plans and Tim did not return. To think in approximately six or seven months we will be privy to what happened that horrible night and what possessed someone to do the unthinkable to such a fun loving family man, brother, friend, brother, uncle and dear son.
To Tim's loved ones it must seem like an eternity since he was taken from them. My heart breaks for them. Justice is coming Tim.
