NDP Justice critic Peter Kormos said the McGuinty Liberal’s negligence has brought the administration of justice into disrepute.

“Our justice system is in chaos and the McGuinty Liberals are ignoring the problem. It’s despicable that the biggest corruption investigation in the history of Canadian policing was thrown out because of unreasonable delays. Once again this proves that the McGuinty Liberals are just too incompetent to deal with the problems in our justice system,” said Kormos.

Kormos was responding to a court ruling today when an Ontario Superior Court judge has stayed numerous charges against a group of Toronto drug squad officers.

“The McGuinty Liberals were repeatedly warned about Ontario′s critical shortage of resources in the criminal justice system. Instead of doing something about it, we have a dangerous and dysfunctional system where cases can drag on for years and then get thrown out because of unreasonable delays,” said Kormos.
