Calgary rapist plays race card

'I'm a black man in a white town, a redneck town to begin with'

By KEVIN MARTIN, SUN MEDIA


Convicted rapist David Michael Gendreau said yesterday his race led a Calgary jury to find him guilty of attacking a former co-worker.

"I'm a black man in a white town, a redneck town to begin with," Gendreau told Justice Scott Brooker.

Gendreau, 42, was supposed to be making submissions on what facts jurors must have concluded were proven in finding him guilty of Feb. 1, 2008, charges of sexual assault and unlawful confinement.

But Gendreau spent most of his time arguing why jurors were wrong in accepting evidence he lured his victim to his home and raped her.

Crown prosecutor Gary Cornfield submitted Brooker should rule jurors found several aggravating factors based on the evidence, including that the crimes were planned.

Cornfield noted the victim testified when she went to Gendreau's basement to look at renovations he was doing he began to kiss her.

When she refused his advances he forced himself on her, handcuffing her behind her back and repeatedly sexually assaulting her.

The woman managed to escape, naked from the waist down, after Gendreau fell asleep.

Brooker said while there was some planning, in that Gendreau had handcuffs ready for use, he wasn't willing to find his intention was to rape from the beginning.

The judge adjourned sentencing until Dec. 18, when Cornfield said he will seek a sentence of five to eight years minus credit for time in custody. Gendreau remains in custody pending sentencing.

Calgary, Alberta man's bail hearing on rape charges

Obsession over a former co-worker led a city man to repeatedly rape her — and possibly contemplate killing her —a prosecutor charged today.

Crown lawyer Pat Yelle said the woman had to flee the man’s northwest Calgary home half naked, with her hands cuffed behind her back, to escape.

But defence lawyer Tonii Roulston said David Michael Gendreau has a right to be presumed innocent and will be taking his case to trial.

“I’m not going to put forward a case, I’ll save that for the trial judge,” Roulston said, at a hearing to determine if Gendreau could be released on bail.

The former supervisor with Canada Post faces charges of sexual assault and unlawful confinement in connection with an incident at his Charleswood home on Jan. 31.

Yelle told provincial court Judge Catherine Skene the woman fled Gendreau’s home after being held for nearly six hours and repeatedly raped.

The prosecutor said the woman was only able to escape when Gendreau fell asleep and she was able to loosen a rope he had tide to the handcuffs which bound her wrists behind her back.

The harrowing assault left the victim believing she would be murdered when Gendreau discussed having to go to her home to retrieve a glass which might contain his fingerprints after they had consumed beer there earlier.

“At that point she was terrified he was planning on killing her,” said Yelle.

Gendreau tied a rope to her handcuffs and laid on top of it so he could fall asleep, she said.
The woman, naked from the waist down, was able to escape to a nearby home and call police, who found Gendreau had loaded her abandoned purse and clothing into his car, said Yelle.
Roulston argued it was “sheer speculation” her client considered murdering the woman and argued there were inconstancies in her story.

The lawyer also dismissed suggestions he was obsessed with the victim, noting he has not tried to contact her while in the Calgary Remand Centre since Feb. 1.

Skene will decide this afternoon whether she’s ready to make a decision.

If you read the history of the reversal of REFORM in the South you will see the evidence of the use of rape accusation as a tool to remove and imprison black political leaders that were put in power by the federal government.

It has been used as a tool for centuries. That does not meant that it is so in this case.

but I would not be too quick to disregard it as the case until i am really familiar with it.

usually I have no opinion, other than pointing out the prevalence of rape being used as a tool against blacks.

usually to remove them from jobs, or politician places of influence.
they also user it against the educated blacks too.
since one of their most important acts was to remove literate black from position of influence.
they usually lynch them after accusing them of rape, and murdering them after a railroad trial..

difficult to accept, but have some relationship in history.
The laws have been changed for the most part, but the socilization of racial suppression has been left intact in most cases. <div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: Shebada</div><div class="ubbcode-body">
