Brandon Pardi arrested but released

Posted By: Shuyee Lee · 7/9/2012 2:24:00 PM

Brandon Pardi, the young man convicted of dangerous driving causing the death of 3-year-old Bianca Leduc on Hallowe'en 2007 in Île Perrot, was arrested last week for breach of conditions.

But he was released because his conditions have changed.

Just over a month ago, Pardi was sentenced to two years less a day in the community, including a 24-hour house arrest during the first year.

So when police arrested Pardi following a bar brawl in Ste-Anne-de-Bellevue during the wee hours of last Friday morning, they thought he was breaching that condition.

But since the crown is appealing the sentence, it's been suspended. That only kicked in last Wednesday.

"It takes a little while for the police to have the new conditions on their computer," his lawyer Pierre Joyal told CJAD News.

Those new conditions are actually Pardi's pre-sentence conditions, including not being able to drive, keeping the peace and being on good behaviour.

No one filed a complaint about the bar fight so there were no charges.

Pardi is appealing his conviction. It will be several months before either appeal will be heard.

    This young man is bad news. I'll bet he new about his new conditions and was taking advantage of that. Not bad after being found guilty and sentenced for killing a child. I hope the appeal of his sentence sends him to jail this time, like he deserves.

    I'll bet he's having a good laugh at our justice system. Too bad no one pressed charges at the bar!!!

    How is being in a bar fight "keeping the peace" and "being on good behavior"? Sounds to me like he violated his new conditions, but this is Quebec, we only punish the innocent tax payer.

    This guy should be still under his old conditions . Even if he is appealing the verdict .he's guilty until proven otherwise . The law is a farce

    I guess he has already forgot about the little girl he killed...Back at the bar eh...Quebec the distinct society...where the criminals have more rights than the victims.
