Criminal Justice System Monitoring
​

JFG works to increase homeless and low-income girls' access to justice in cases where girls are victims of violence or persons accused of a crime. On the basis of our observations in court, work with girls, and analysis of current research, we make recommendations to increase girls' access to justice at each point in the criminal justice system--police, courts, corrections. 

Court Case Monitoring History

R v. Ramsay
Justice for Girls called for a sentence in R v. Ramsay that strongly denounces violence against First Nations girls. Justice for Girls called for a sentence that would name hate and prejudice--based on sex, race, and age--as an aggravating factor in the case against the sexually abusive and sadistic former judge Ramsay.

R V. Dezwaan
Violent man on bail for sexual assault with a weapon murders teenage First Nations girl.

R V. Dunning
BC Court lenient on man who was accused of multiple counts of sexual violence against young women. Dunning was convicted on one count of sexual exploitation and given a minimum sentence.

R V. Kim
Frank Kim was convicted on numerous sexually violent crimes against teenage girls. BC Supreme Court allowed Kim to represent himself at trial, which gave him the opportunity to continue his abuse of young women through sexually explicit questioning during cross examinations and acts of intimidation in the courtroom.
