Discussions

7 were arrested during a raid in the 800 block of 9th Street. I remember a discussion a couple of months ago about a problem house in that neck of the woods I think... I wonder if it's the same house?  
 
Anyway, good work BPS.

That's a soft paywall link.

I'm grateful for BPS and for them keeping a close eye on the 'people' that live and hang out at this place.  
 
One question, why in hell does the landlord let them still live at his house? No one wants to live around idiots!

Is there a landlord? Last I heard the person that owned the house is in jail.

Absolutely agree that landlords of these types are houses have to be aware of what’s going on inside them. Is rental money that important?? I am also always amazed at the lack of names published in our local paper. There is no excuse for not letting us know their names.maybe our kids are dating one of these clowns or we are employing them unbeknownst to us what their after hours activities they are involved in.Its not a matter of privacy as our paper has published many many times the names of people outside of Brandon.The only way to get rid of this kind of slime in our city is to publicly put them in a choke hold and throw their arses in jails.

The police never released the names of the people arrested, so nothing to do with the newspaper. They can't print names they don't have. But either way the names of those arrested will come out and be published in the paper when there's bail hearings or when the cases go to court.

One of the names of the people arrested is Theresa Macdonald. Her name was given in a comment on the BRANDON SUN Facebook page and was not removed from the comment so I am sure they will let the other names out soon..!

From what I know the paper can’t release names unless the person pleads guilty or is proven guilty. Kinda silly to be mad about that. What if there’s a mistake and someone isn’t guilty after releasing a name. Wouldn’t be good.

if you are a landlord and want to evict a bad tenant unless they co-operate it can be a difficult process with the provincial regulations that protect the tenant,good or bad

and another one behind that had no problem kicking idiots out. So it can be done, I guess if you break the lease agreement?  
 
Not sure why he''s letting the creeps that stay there now free rein. I sometimes think that they are his relatives and that why he lets them stay. Then I feel bad for him, I wouldn't want relatives like that!
