CTV News quotes Ottawa lawyer Guy Giorno in a report on Correctional Service of Canada (CSC) removal of killer’s photo.
Toronto-based lawyer Guy Giorno, an expert in political law and government ethics, says the CSC was wrong from the get-go about Brenda Davis sharing Mailloux's picture on Facebook.
"Unless there's a public safety reason not to release the photograph, victims have a legal statutory right to photographs and they can do with them as they please," said Giorno. "The CSC has taken the position victims can't do that, that CSC can only give them to victims if they keep it to themselves and don't use them. There’s simply nothing in the act that says that."
