Political Prisoner Released After 26 Days in Jail<\/p>\n\n\n\n
EDMONTON. June 9, 2026.<\/strong> Today after a short court appearance, political prisoner Brad Love was released and told all charges would be dropped at a further court appearance in two weeks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n “I was scooped and spent 26 days in prison for nothing,” an angry Mr. Love told CAFE. He’d been arrested May 13 at his Fort McMurray residence, not allowed to get his pants or wallet or ID. He spent the first night in an RCMP cell in Fort McMurray without blankets on the concrete cell floor. Four days later he was transferred to Edmonton Remand Centre five hours away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The charges were “breach of probation” for trespassing on some woman’s lawn and whacking a security camera with a stick. Mr. Love denied the charges and said bus transfers would prove he was elsewhere at the time of the alleged incidents. The RCMP who make a habit of harassing the outspoken free thinker slapped the handcuffs on anyway.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In court today, the Crown admitted that the video of the event confirmed that the whacker with a stick was not Mr. Love and a “witness” had recanted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Fort McMurray is awash in drugs, Indian public drunkenness is a scandal and White tweekers, Indian drunks and numerous Third World newcomers fail to pay bus fare, but the local RCMP are fixated on Bad Love. After his arrest, they entered his dwelling, apparently, without a warrant and questioned his room mates as to whether Mr. Love made racial remarks. Whether he does or doesn’t is irrelevant to the bogus charges at issue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Mr. Love described his release. He had $1,500 in his canteen — his money transferred by family members. The prison authorities would only hand over $500, the rest to come later. {How can they get away with this?] So, with no ID or credit card, Mr. Love had to find his way back to Fort McMurray. With no ID, he couldn’t board a plane. Finally, he persuaded a cab driver to accept $500, with the remaining $300 on arrival.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Of the 35 inmates released with Mr. Love, 25 were Indians. None had money. They were given bus passes to head downtown to the Indian Friendship Centre.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Political Prisoner Released After 26 Days in Jail EDMONTON.
