While Mark Smich was moved two years ago, the families say they are speaking out now after recent national outrage over a similar transfer of serial killer Paul Bernardo.
“Why should you kill two people, write a song about it and then be in a more comfortable location — come on.”
Last week, Ontario’s highest court dismissed the killers’ appeals on both murders. They are currently serving two life sentences each. The families got notification of Smich’s move, but not an explanation, said Linda Babcock, Laura Babcock’s mother. Linda Babcock, speaking on behalf of her family and the Bosmas, said Smich’s transfer deserves a review too.“Could you please explain to my family and the family of his other victim, Tim Bosma, why this person who murdered our children should not be in a maximum-security prison?” she wrote.
Mendicino was not the minister at the time of Smich’s move — it was Bill Blair, now emergency preparedness minister. Smich’s lawyer, Richard Litkowski, also declined to comment on his client’s location or the conditions under which he is incarcerated.Article content
