A 15-year-old boy who acknowledged being responsible for a train disaster in Nova Scotia that left dozens of people injured apologized to some of the passengers on Thursday. The forum, which was private, was created to let victims have a vote in the teen’s punishment. A judge will receive recommendations at a sentencing hearing on October 2. Due to his young age, the boy’s identity is being concealed by the law, although he has admitted guilt to mischief risking life. The maximum sentence for him is three years in prison.
He explained to them that he only wanted to take the lock off the switch and had no intention of derailing the train. The emotional meeting was beneficial for both the victims and the juvenile criminal, according to passenger Fred Coyle who was hurt on the train. He has been able to apologize in some ways, but he has also had to hear our tales, according to Coyle. In April 2001, a VIA Rail train sped off the tracks and slammed into a feed store in Stewiacke, Nova Scotia. A few days later, after the authorities claimed that a switch had been tampered with, they detained a boy.
The adolescent, who was 13 at the time, initially refuted the allegations, but then changed his tune and admitted to making a mess that endangered life in exchange for the dismissal of a charge of criminal negligence resulting in bodily damage. The “restorative justice” system in Nova Scotia is represented by the forum on Thursday. In the past few years, it has been applied in hundreds of cases around the province. A judge may be asked by victims to impose anything from reparations, community service, or even jail time. According to Pat Gorham, the program’s coordinator, it is a chance for the juvenile offender to take responsibility and for victims to be heard, take part, and play an active role in the legal system.
