Yes, that will be interesting to watch. Of course, the article doesn't go into a lot of detail but on the surface it sounds like a bit of a 'fishing expedition'.Something in this ballpark is making its way through the courts south of us ...
Police used a reverse keyword Google search to find an accused killer. He says that's illegal.
Privacy advocates are watching the case closely, concerned that police could use reverse keyword searches to investigate people who seek information about abortions.
I’m pretty sure the police are busy enough - especially down south - to randomly start checking people search history about abortion.
I totally agree with you, on every point.
To be fair, I’d be posted off too if I spent the entire long weekend needing to convince internet strangers that “No, it wasn’t our kids who robbed the bank and killed police officers…”Poor people! I can't imagine....
Prominent Vancouver Island family collateral victims of Victoria bank robbery
Auchterlonie family issues statement regarding online harassment
When RCMP officers in Saanich released the identity of the two suspects in the botched Victoria robbery Saturday, a Comox Valley family’s life was turned upside down.
Susan and Bob Auchterlonie were shocked to discover they shared the surname of the two deceased bank robbers. But that is all they share.
The ensuing 48 hours have been so challenging for the Comox Valley Auchterlonies, they have issued the following statement to Black Press:
This past Saturday police identified the two deceased suspects in the recent bank robbery in Victoria. The two individuals are NOT related to the Auchterlonie family from Cumberland. We have never met them, and we have no connection to them beyond sharing a unique last name.
While this tragic event never was about us, it quickly spiralled, and our weekend was spent responding to media enquiries and attempting to respond to negative comments about us on social media. Because Bob holds a senior position in the Canadian Armed Forces, he became a target. The hurtful, harmful comments posted anonymously by strangers looking to come up with conspiracy theories about our family were despicable.
As noted this tragic event was never about us. It is instead about those impacted – the officers involved, the bank staff, the bank customers and all their families and loved ones, and yes, also the two young suspects and their loved ones. Ourthoughts are with all of them.
This weekend also offered a reminder to those of us who post on social media to get the facts first and to resist engaging in speculation.
While our weekend was challenging, we know there are several families who have had a much more difficult weekend than we did, and we ask that you think of them.
Thank you to our friends for their support.
Susan Auchterlonie,
Vice-Admiral Bob Auchterlonie,
and our families

Not when it comes to terminating life of another.
We have background checks.
You mistake what the decision really was. It put the power back to the states.
It is just crazy how so many misunderstand this. Which is fueled by nefarious media and political operatives.
You will find that our opponents (external) fund both sides of the political extremes - both Politicians and Media.*Thank You for clarifying this.
I actually had a ton of questions, but this song makes a lot more sense now that you’ve explained it that way.*
*I have attempted to steer clear of sensationalized media, and focus on the facts. The way you’ve explained it in just that one sentence brings more clarity to the issue than any media source I have read yet.
That could be said. There used to be a centrist view where accomodation and compromise could be reached.It’s almost like their don’t want a moderate middle ground United against them
Sooooooo...ummmmmmm...huh?
Somewhat tounge in cheek. Half of his social media pictures, opposite all those scary gun pictures, were of nature.
Many Many years ago Weibo Ludwig and his band of eco terrorists were suspect in spiking trees etc and other merry adventures.

Of course had it been a civilian review board, they'd likely be castigating them for not trying to understand them better and talk them down in the middle of an all out gunfight...sorry, having flashbacks to issues with NDP on The Island.No sh*t Sherlock....

Police justified in shooting of BMO robbery suspects: IIO
It’s the IIO. They are a civilian review board, and historically. Or super friendly to police. But yeah, this was a no brainer - but due process still has to be followed.
