Bail denied for N.B. man at centre of alleged act of vigilantism
https://www.cbc.ca/news/
Man accused of vigilantism in McAdam changes mind on where he'll be tried
Billy McGillicuddy, 41, of St. Croix will be tried in provincial court instead of Court of King's Bench
A St. Croix man accused of assault and weapons offences after an incident in McAdam earlier this year has elected to change the court where his case will be heard.
Billy McGillicuddy appeared in Fredericton provincial court on Tuesday to have his case transferred there from the Court of King's Bench in Burton.
Speaking to CBC News after the hearing, McGillicuddy's lawyer, TJ Burke, said the change in venue was made so McGillicuddy could get a quicker trial.
McGillicuddy's new trial date is Oct. 31. If he had stayed with the Court of King's Bench, his next date in court would have been Jan. 16, 2023.
He has been in custody since the June 4 incident and will remain so, at the Saint John Regional Correctional Centre, until his trial is heard.
McGillicuddy was accused of carrying out what some residents of McAdam called vigilante justice against another man, Blake Scott. He is alleged to have assaulted Scott, pointed a sawed-off shotgun at him and forcefully confined him.
He is charged with four counts: assault with a weapon, forcible confinement, pointing a firearm and possession of a weapon for a dangerous purpose.

Petty crime leads Plaster Rock to hire private security company
Rural mayor calls for greater transparency, presence from RCMP
Plaster Rock Mayor Tom Eagles says community has had to hire private security to protect public property
Tom Eagles says he only found out by chance through a meeting about a year ago with Larry Tremblay, the former New Brunswick RCMP commanding officer, that the ratio of officers to population in his area was one per 1,000 people.
Meanwhile, he said, the provincial rate was 1.6 per 1,000, and the national rate was 1.8 per 1,000.
"I think they should tell the councils just that," Eagles said.
The village didn't really have any choice but the RCMP for police service, he said, because it can't afford its own force.
It pays $200,000 a year for the Mounties, and on top of that, it recently hired a private security company to patrol municipal properties on weekends at a cost of about $1,000 per weekend, after a spate of minor crimes such as theft and vandalism.
Police were often unable to respond to calls for a day or more, he said, because they were busy on other calls.
"Recently they've been called for a suspicious person," said Eagles, "and never showed up."
Seeking solutions
Hiring private security guards is "like a Band-Aid solution," he said.
"We need better coverage, we need better response times here.
"We know the crime rate here is high," Eagles said
Cpl. Hans Ouellette, a spokesperson for the RCMP in New Brunswick, said "As with all first responders, the RCMP has to triage calls to ensure the most serious incidents are dealt with first and that resources are being used to their best advantage."
The force is committed to using the resources it has to provide the best possible service, he said, and tries to be transparent through public reports on its website, including occurrence maps and graphs.
Ouellette emphasized that all calls are "important" and urged any victim or witness of crime to report it.
He declined to comment on the municipality's hiring of private security guards, but said local input is always welcome to help identify issues of concern, discuss solutions and set priorities.
As for the level of staffing in the Plaster Rock area, Ouellette suggested that is up to the province.
"Any questions that revolve around cost per population, budget, cost of policing, levels of service for cost, et cetera, those questions need to be directed to the contract provider," he said, "and in this province that would be the Department of Public Safety."
Questions about vacancies
Ouellette did not respond to a follow-up question about whether there were any vacancies in the force in that area, but he acknowledged the past two years have been "very challenging."
"Our members have during that time remained very dedicated professionals that have continually met evolving and complex policing demands, while responding with care and compassion to keeping New Brunswickers safe."
Eagles said he hadn't heard of any vacancies in his area —the local detachment closed years ago and officers now respond to the village from either Perth-Andover or Woodstock — but wouldn't be surprised if there were.
"They probably are running short," he said, with people out sick and fewer new recruits entering the profession.

Downey, a spokesperson for the Department of Public Safety, said it's
not uncommon for local governments to make use of private security
agencies to supplement police, "knowing that officers cannot be
everywhere at all times." (Shane Fowler/CBC)
Meanwhile, the Department of Public Safety deflected questions about the number and location of officers.
"Questions about vacancies and where officers are posted should be directed to the RCMP," said spokesperson Geoffrey Downey.
According to the province's contract with the RCMP, the minister of public safety determines the level of policing service, and any change in the number of detachments and organizational structure of the force, in consultation with the police commissioner.
The minister and the commissioner are also supposed to agree by Sept. 1 each year on any additional staff needed for the next fiscal year.
The commanding officer is supposed to report quarterly to the minister on staffing and vacancies.
The Department of Public Safety didn't provide those figures to CBC News or explain why a lower level of staffing may have been approved for the Plaster Rock area.
"Many factors can influence the level of service a community requires," Downey said, "such as calls for service, crime rates, operational and administrative workload demands and the community's environment, which includes population density and geography."
He also said it's not uncommon for local governments to make use of private security agencies to supplement police, "knowing that officers cannot be everywhere at all times."
The department acknowledged that the minister is responsible for ensuring the policing models chosen provide adequate law enforcement.
Eagles said he's hopeful that public meetings being organized for later this month will help get more officers in the area after successive councils flagged the issue and saw no results.
Carleton-Victoria MLA Margaret Johnson, who is also minister of agriculture, is co-ordinating the events. According to her executive assistant, the first event is slated for Oct. 17 at Carleton North High School in Florenceville-Bristol. The second is set for Oct. 24 at the Legion in Plaster Rock. They are also trying to organize a third meeting in Perth-Andover.
Public Safety Minister Bill Hogan and other department representatives are expected to attend. The RCMP has also been invited.
As to whether policing reforms may be introduced in January along with municipal governance reforms, Downey said there could be some jurisdiction changes that affect municipal police forces, but regional service commissions will not have a role to play in policing.

Petty crime leads Plaster Rock to hire private security company
'The RCMP weren't there, so we had to do something,' says mayor
Thieves started running "rampant" in the area this summer, said Mayor Tom Eagles. They took kayaks, canoes, four-wheelers, side-by-sides, trailers and gasoline.
"They broke into the golf course here a couple of times this summer. It's even got so bad they broke into a tool shed at the local cemetery and stole the gas there."
Similar concerns were heard in recent months from McAdam in southwestern New Brunswick, where the RCMP decided to step up night patrols following a series of community meetings.
Plaster Rock council opted to hire the private security company GardaWorld.
It has been contracted to guard municipal property for two weekends in a row at a cost of about $1,000 per weekend, said Patty St. Peter, chief administrative officer.
"They come when they're needed," said Eagles.
The presence of marked security vehicles and persons in uniform "goes a long way," he said.
"With social media ... one push of the button and everybody knows they're there. The word spreads fast."
The village has three to four acres of property, said Eagles, including a recreational facility, swimming pool, tennis courts and tourist park that extends to Roulston Lake, where the World Pond Hockey championships were played.
"It's a big area," said Eagles.
"And the petty stuff was getting huge."
Surveillance cameras not helping
A gas tank on a recreation truck had to be replaced, he said, a shed was broken into and items were stolen, including paddles and lifeguarding supplies.
"You have to replace that, and it costs a lot of money."
These are the year-to-date crime occurrences reported by the RCMP for Plaster Rock as of the end of September. (New Brunswick RCMP)
The village has about 20 video surveillance cameras, said Eagles, but they haven't been much help.
"Unless you can see a face or get a licence plate number, there isn't much sense with the cameras. So you've almost got to catch them right there."
Plaster Rock used to have an RCMP detachment with four officers, said Eagles.
"When they were here, they were involved with sports, they were involved with the youth, they were highly respected.
"I don't see that now."
Large area to cover
Now, RCMP officers are dispatched from Perth-Andover or Woodstock, he said, to cover a region that extends north to Nictau and Riley Brook, and it often takes days to respond to non-emergency calls.
"There's days and days and days you will never see a police officer in the village," he said.
"If it was a bad accident or there's life and death involved, yes, they would come," said Eagles, "but the petty stuff, it's usually on hold unless the officer is available."
That's rarely the case, he said, because they have a large area to cover.
"We get calls all the time, there's a vehicle on fire on the Renous Highway or there's something else going on. The dispatcher will call into the local fire department and they'll tell them the RCMP's not coming because they have something else on the go that's way, far more important."
The national average, noted Eagles, is 1.8 police officers per 1,000 people. Across New Brunswick, he said, it's 1.6 and in Plaster Rock, it's 1.0.
"We paid $200,000 for the RCMP, but the RCMP weren't there, so we had to do something."
'Money well spent'
Eagles said he spoke to the former commanding officer of the RCMP in New Brunswick about a year ago, but has not had any contact with the new one.
He said this summer he contacted the minister of public safety and has recently heard back from someone to organize a meeting.
"It's no different here than it would be in other small communities in the province," said Eagles, "and it's a problem."
Much of the theft is probably motivated by the need for cash to buy drugs, he said.
"If there's a mental health (issue) or an addiction," he said, "we're here to help. But in most cases you have to ask for help."
So far, said Eagles, the private security contract has "been money well spent."
The village will do it again, he said "if need be."
CBC News has contacted the RCMP to ask why the number of officers per capita is low in the Plaster Rock area and for a possible response to the mayor's description of inadequate service.
The CBC also asked the Department of the Attorney General and Public Safety whether it approves of the measure Plaster Rock has taken and whether policing reforms can be expected in the new year along with regional service commission changes.
You only have to have one of these criminals take a Russian window tour and the police will be tripping over themselves to protect and serve your community.

'Everybody wanted Tobique Valley' in new name: mayor
The District of Tobique Valley is the new name for Entity 78 encompassing the Village of Plaster Rock, the Local Service District of Riley Brook and most of the Local Service Districts of Gordon and Lorne.
Although the name isn’t official until approved by the provincial government, Plaster Rock Mayor Tom Eagles said it will get the nod after being recommended by facilitator Don Fitzgerald. Eagles made the comment at the May 16 village council meeting held at the Phil Sharkey Memorial Centre.
“Everybody wanted Tobique Valley in the name,” the mayor said. “It’s not engraved in stone yet, but it probably will be.”
Plaster Rock will benefit from improved tourism offerings to attract visitors to the region
News release
August 5, 2022 · Plaster Rock, New Brunswick · Atlantic Canada Opportunities Agency (ACOA)
Canada has much to offer visitors: breathtaking landscapes and wide open spaces; diverse and inclusive experiences; and welcoming people from coast to coast to coast who provide outstanding service. Combined with a strong focus on health and safety and high COVID-19 vaccination rates, Canada is among the most alluring and smartest destination choices.
The pandemic has had an undeniable impact on Canada’s tourism sector. The Government of Canada continues to help tourism businesses recover and position the industry for strong future growth.
Today, the Honourable Ginette Petitpas Taylor, Minister of Official Languages and Minister responsible for ACOA, announced a non-repayable investment of $86,913, through the Tourism Relief Fund (TRF), for the Village of Plaster Rock.
The Government of New Brunswick is also contributing $76,000 to the project through the Regional Development Corporation.
These investments will help the municipality add a healing garden and introduce paddle board, pedal boat and kayak rentals to the existing offerings at Roulston Lake. This will enable Plaster Rock to expand the range of recreational activities available at the lake and meet increased customer demand for unique tourism experiences.
Launched in July 2021, the TRF was created to help organizations and businesses in the tourism sector adapt their operations to meet public health requirements, offer innovative products and services to visitors and prepare to welcome back travellers. The TRF is administered by Canada’s regional development agencies (RDAs) and Innovation, Science and Economic Development Canada (ISED).
Quotes
“As we recover from this pandemic, we are focused on being there for the tourism sector. With the support announced today, the Village of Plaster Rock will be able to prepare for the future. This is an important step in the recovery effort as visitors rediscover the world-class tourism experiences Atlantic Canada has to offer.”
- The Honourable Ginette Petitpas Taylor, Minister of Official Languages and Minister responsible for ACOA
“The Canadian tourism sector continues to be one of the most affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. We are fully committed to supporting businesses and organizations through these challenging times, keeping safety as the top priority while ensuring they get support to quickly recover, innovate their products and services, and thrive. The Tourism Relief Fund will help businesses adapt, make improvements, and be ready to welcome back guests. It also feeds into a broader strategy to help the sector survive the pandemic, recover and grow. The Canadian economy will not fully recover until our tourism sector recovers.”
- The Honourable Randy Boissonnault, Minister of Tourism and Associate Minister of Finance
“We are pleased to invest in enhanced tourism experiences for the Village of Plaster Rock. The tourism sector is an important part of economic growth in all areas of the province, and particularly in our rural communities.”
- The Honourable Gary Crossman, Minister of Environment and Climate Change and Minister responsible for the Regional Development Corporation
Quick facts
-
The tourism sector is a key contributor to the Canadian economy. In 2019, tourism generated over $104 billion in revenue and directly employed 692,000 people, including those in underrepresented groups like women, students, racialized people, and Indigenous populations.
-
With a national budget of $500 million, including $485 million for regional priorities administered by Canada’s Regional Development Agencies (RDAs) and $15 million for national priorities administered by Innovation, Science and Economic Development Canada, the Tourism Relief Fund is part of the billion dollars in tourism support announced in Budget 2021.
o A minimum of $50 million of the fund’s budget has been earmarked for Indigenous tourism projects. Indigenous communities that rely heavily on tourism have been disproportionately affected by the pandemic.
o $48.5 million from the Tourism Relief Fund has been allocated to ACOA to administer the fund in the Atlantic region.

Moncton councillors balk at call for 25 more RCMP officers next year
Increase could see Codiac Regional Policing Authority budget rise from $39 million to to $51 million
The Codiac Regional Policing Authority, the civilian board overseeing Codiac RCMP, has recommended increasing the number of Mounties by 25 to 172 and hiring 18 more civilian staff in 2023.
It follows residents and businesses calling for more action on crime, while others seek to defund police in favour of other social services.
"It's going to be a very difficult decision by council," Moncton Mayor Dawn Arnold said. "We get it every day from both extremes."
Don Moore, chair of the policing authority, presented the organization's proposed 2023 budget to councillors.

wants the increase next year instead of spread out over several to
address public safety concerns. (Shane Magee/CBC)
Moore said the board wants the increase next year, but he also offered options for spreading it over three and five years.
"Our belief is that we will be safer one year after full implementation," Moore said.
He said it would likely take a full year for the extra officers to make a difference and waiting would slow that result.
The recommendation, which wasn't voted on Monday, sets the stage for municipal budget deliberations this fall.
Budget could rise to $51M
It's projected to cost $8.2 million if carried out in 2023.
That would be on top of a budget increase of $3.8 million for inflation and equipment replacement, an increase expected whether or not more Mounties are added.
Together, the policing authority budget would increase from $39 million this year to $51 million.
Moncton covers 71 per cent of the budget, and city staff say they're analyzing what implications for the city's budget and tax rate.
Without any other changes to the budget, the increased spending could mean an eight cent tax-rate increase.
Councillors who spoke appeared to be uncomfortable with the plan.
Coun. Shawn Crossman said it's coming up as the city spends $57 million on a new RCMP station downtown. It is expected to be complete in January 2025.

Coun. Daniel Bourgeois says he wants to wait for the results of a
policing study before deciding whether to add more officers. (Shane Magee/CBC)
Coun. Charles Léger, who chaired the policing authority for years until January, said the recommendation was made without sufficient data.
"I see this as a reaction - people were frustrated," Léger said. "I get it. We get calls every single day."
He said councillors need to know what specific results would be accomplished, and he was "very disappointed."
"I spent a lot of time on the CRPA and certainly from my perspective I, maybe I have high standards. … There needs to be some background to this.
"Right now it's like, here's here's our wish list, please give us the money. I keep hearing 'we believe.' Well, I believe in a lot of things too, but that's not gonna help me at the end of the day. We need facts."
Deputy Mayor Bryan Butler, a former Mountie who has regularly said the city needs more officers, said he thinks the increase could be larger but the cost is a problem for taxpayers.
The request comes as Moncton, Dieppe and Riverview jointly study whether to keep the RCMP or change to another policing model.
"I will wait for the experts that we've hired for the police study before I make any decision," Coun. Daniel Bourgeois said.
The study by Perivale and Taylor Consulting Inc. is expected to examine the number of officers needed to police the three communities.
It's expected to be complete next year, after councillors will need to finalize the 2023 policing budget.
Coun. Paulette Theriault said the study may show the same goals could be accomplished with less spending.
Work began this year on a new Codiac Regional RCMP station in downtown Moncton expected to cost $57 million. (Shane Fowler/CBC)
Bourgeois repeatedly asked the policing authority chair whether it had examined any scientific evidence when deciding whether hiring more officers would help.
Moore said the recommendation was based on consultations with 80 groups or individuals over the past year.
A 30-page report cites growing perceptions the region is becoming less safe and a need for a more visible police force.
Moore said increasing the size of the force was one of the first things he wanted to do after becoming board chair in January, saying he has been able to convince the other board members.
Léger, asked why he hadn't made a similar recommendation while board chair, said the RCMP had attempted to address the number of officers out on leave, which had affected staffing levels.
He also said the board was also sorting out governance issues and had set the groundwork for the consultations that led to the recommendation.
The policing authority is expected to present its proposed budget to councils in Dieppe and Riverview this month.

Dear Mr. Amos:
This will acknowledge receipt of a copy of your e-mail of December 29,
2006 to Corporal Warren McBeath of the RCMP.
Because of the nature of the allegations made in your message, I have

Dear Mr. Amos,
Thank you for your follow up e-mail to me today. I was on days off
over the holidays and returned to work this evening. Rest assured I
was not ignoring or procrastinating to respond to your concerns.
As your attachment sent today refers from Premier Graham, our position
is clear on your dead calf issue: Our forensic labs do not process
testing on animals in cases such as yours, they are referred to the
Atlantic Veterinary College in Charlottetown who can provide these
services. If you do not choose to utilize their expertise in this
instance, then that is your decision and nothing more can be done.
As for your other concerns regarding the US Government, false
imprisonment and Federal Court Dates in the US, etc... it is clear
that Federal authorities are aware of your concerns both in Canada and
theUS. These issues do not fall into the purvue of Detachment policing
in Petitcodiac, NB.
It was indeed an interesting and informative conversation we had on
December 23rd, and I wish you well in all of your future endeavors.
Sincerely,
Warren McBeath, Cpl.

>> HER MAJESTY THE QUEEN
>>
>> Defendant
>>
>> ORDER
>>
>> (Delivered orally from the Bench in Fredericton, New Brunswick, on

>> The Plaintiff seeks an appeal de novo, by way of motion pursuant to
>> the Federal Courts Rules (SOR/98-106), from an Order made on November
>> 12, 2015, in which Prothonotary Morneau struck the Statement of Claim
>> in its entirety.
>>
>> At the outset of the hearing, the Plaintiff brought to my attention a
>> letter dated September 10, 2004, which he sent to me, in my then
>> capacity as Past President of the New Brunswick Branch of the
Canadian
>> Bar Association, and the then President of the Branch, Kathleen
Quigg,
>> (now a Justice of the New Brunswick Court of Appeal). In that letter
>> he stated:
>>
>> As for your past President, Mr. Bell, may I suggest that you check
the
>> work of Frank McKenna before I sue your entire law firm including
you.
>> You are your brother’s keeper.
>>
>> Frank McKenna is the former Premier of New Brunswick and a former
>> colleague of mine at the law firm of McInnes Cooper. In addition to
>> expressing an intention to sue me, the Plaintiff refers to a number
of
>> people in his Motion Record who he appears to contend may be
witnesses
>> or potential parties to be added. Those individuals who are known to
>> me personally, include, but are not limited to the former Prime
>> Minister of Canada, The Right Hon>> Queen’s Bench, Vic Toews;
former member of Parliament Rob Moore;
>> former Director of Policing Services, the late Grant Garneau; former
>> Chief of the Fredericton Police Force, Barry McKnight; former Staff
>> Sergeant Danny Copp; my former colleagues on the New Brunswick Court
>> of Appeal, Justices Bradley V. Green and Kathleen Quigg, and, retired
>> Assistant Commissioner Wayne Lang of the Royal Canadian Mounted
>> Police.
>>
>> In the circumstances, given the threat in 2004 to sue me in my
>> personal capacity and my past and present relationship with many
>> potential witnesses and/or potential parties to the litigation, I am
>> of the view there would be a reasonable apprehension of bias should I
>> hear this motion. See Justice de Grandpré’s dissenting judgment in
>> Committee for Justice and Liberty et al v National Energy Board et
al,
>> [1978] 1 SCR 369 at p 394 for the applicable test regarding
>> allegations of bias. In the circumstances, although neither party has
>> requested I recuse myself, I consider it appropriate that I do so.

Rural residents air frustration with policing by RCMP after alleged vigilantism
People don't feel safe, residents tell McAdam meeting, but RCMP blame
a lack of resources

crime in the New Brunswick village. (Aidan Cox/CBC)
McAdam residents say petty crime is at an unprecedented high in the
village, and the RCMP aren't doing enough to stop those responsible.
Officers are taking too long to respond or aren't taking reported
crimes seriously, said when about 100 residents of the western New
Brunswick community gathered at McAdam High School on Monday night to
express their concerns to high-ranking officials of the force.
"At one time in this country … we could count on the police to do the
job, get the criminal," said resident Don Doherty. "And then we could
count on the justice system to put the criminal in jail. We can't
count on that anymore.
"We've lost our sense of safety."
McAdam village council organized the meeting, which included Deanna
Hill, the New Brunswick RCMP assistant commissioner, and Public Safety
Minister Bill Hogan.
It follows an alleged act of vigilantism on June 4 that resulted in
Billy McGillicuddy, a resident of neighbouring St. Croix, being
accused of assaulting Blake Scott with a baseball bat and pointing a
sawed-off shotgun at him.
Billy McGillicuddy, 41, of St. Croix, near McAdam, is facing six
criminal charges, including possession of a weapon for the purpose of
committing an offence, assault with a weapon, unlawful confinement and
unlawfully pointing a firearm. (Billy McGillicuddy/Facebook)
McGillicuddy's three court appearances have brought out supporters,
including McAdam Mayor Ken Stannix, who said he was supporting him and
another man "who allegedly took the law into their own hands."
Dwain Gardner of McAdam also faces four criminal charges stemming from
the same incident.
Plea date scheduled for alleged N.B. vigilante
Bail denied for N.B. man at centre of alleged act of vigilantism
'You're empowering these ... criminals'
Cathy Jewett lives in Fredericton but grew up in McAdam, and her
68-year-old father still calls the community home.
She said his house was broken into earlier this year and was found
ransacked when he returned after some time away.
Jewett said the family called the police, and to their surprise, were
told it wasn't an incident they would send an officer to attend to in
person.
She said another crime involving her father's credit card being stolen
and used wasn't properly followed up by police, and now she's worried
what could happen next to him.
"You're empowering these people in this village that are criminals,"
Jewett said.
"When you don't show up to my dad's crime scene — and that's what it
was, it was a crime scene — it just proves to them that they can get
away with it.
"My dad is surrounded by people in this village on his street that are
known to be the bad guys. I'd just like to know how I'm supposed to
keep my 68-year-old dad safe in his home when you have people that are
on drugs, and I'm afraid. Are they going to come to his home when he's
there by himself?"
Officer recruitment challenges
In her opening remarks, Hill said the RCMP was facing "unprecedented
times" getting the resources it needs.
"We've never seen the likes of the issues we are having with getting
people into the door to apply," she said. "It's not just the RCMP,
It's all across the country."
"I've been in the RCMP for 32 years. I've never seen the predicament
we're in now."
The meeting took the form of a panel discussion, with McAdam Mayor Ken
Stannix, Justice and Public Safety Minister Bill Hogan, New Brunswick
RCMP Assistant Commissioner Deanna Hill, RCMP Supt. Andy LeClair,
Supt. Dan Austin, Corp. Dave Penney, and St. Croix MLA Kathy Bockus.
(Aidan Cox/CBC)
In responding to complaints about RCMP response times, Hill noted
McAdam is part of a regional sharing model that includes St. Stephen.
She said if there's one area she feels the RCMP needs to improve, it's
the engagement it has with community members, including residents and
municipal officials.
"I think over the years we've kind of gotten away from that grassroots
and talking to the people that we need to be doing, and I don't mean
our guys and gals on the ground, I mean us. So nights like this are
important."
Asked in an interview after the meeting the number of officers
policing McAdam at any one time, Hill said she could not share that
information as it could compromise the safety of officers.
She also declined to share details about what happened on June 4, the
day of the alleged act of vigilantism, saying that it is a matter
before the courts.
Responding to concerns about offenders committing more crimes while on
promises to appear in court, Hogan said his department is taking
another look at who should be allowed such conditions.
Hogan also said his department is looking at redeploying some of its
peace officers to do random patrols in less policed areas, including
McAdam.
Support for Billy and Dwain
Much of the dialogue avoided the two men accused of carrying out
vigilante justice, though there was a brief mention of them by one of
the attendees.
"I'd just like to say 95 per cent of people in this room support the
McAdam justice that was doled out by Billy and Dwain," said the man,
followed by a chorus of applause.
"We're fed up."
About 100 people filled the gym at McAdam High School to directly tell
senior RCMP officials the Mounties aren't doing their job. (Aidan
Cox/CBC)
The conversation then turned to what residents can potentially do to
defend themselves and their property, which yielded advice from the
RCMP.
Andy LeClair, the RCMP superintendent for the west district, said
citizens have the right to protect themselves, but that they can only
use "reasonable force."
As an example, he said, if someone restrained a burglar, there likely
wouldn't be charges pressed if the alleged burglar suffered some
bruising.
"Now if he was summarily beaten by the individual making the arrest,
yeah, you're going to put yourself into a difficult set of
circumstances," LeClair said.
"Ultimately, we do not advocate vigilante justice."
Optimistic going forward
Stannix warned that if people don't feel they're being protected,
they'll find others to protect them.
He also complained that the criminals were being protected by the
current legal system.
Speaking to reporters after the meeting, he said he was satisfied with
the turnout and felt hopeful the RCMP would do something useful with
the feedback they received.
"I'm hopeful that change will take effect," Stannix said.
"I know it's not going to be a quick change. It's going to take time,
especially when you're talking about how the judicial system works and
all those kinds of things, but at least it's a start and the concern
is there.
"So if that level of criminal activity continues, maybe it'll become
more of a political issue within the province, and that may be the
catalyst that will bring true change."

> Method
>
> We presented a vignette, or brief case study, about an act of
> vigilantism to our respondents, and asked them to answer some
> questions. The vignette describes two criminal acts: a precipitating
> shoplifting crime and a subsequent violent act of vigilantism. The
> story concerns Ann, a storeowner who suspects a particular customer
> has been shoplifting. Her suspicion is corroborated by evidence from
> surveillance tapes. She sends the video footage to the police, hoping
> that they will undertake some action. A few days later, that same
> customer enters her store again. This time the woman steals a t-shirt,
> but upon realizing that she has been seen, manages to escape. The next
> day, the storeowner is downtown on a day off when she happens to catch
> sight of the shoplifter. She forcefully grabs the woman's arm and
> physically assaults her.
>
> After reading the vignette, respondents completed a survey.
> Respondents indicated their agreement with various statements using a
> response scale that varied between one (fully disagree) to five (fully
> agree). The support for vigilantism measure was comprised of 16 items,
> addressing various aspects such as approval of vigilantism, empathy
> with the offender and the victim, punishment, deservingness and blame.
>
> These included items such as "What Ann did is justified" and "Thanks
> to people like Ann at least something is done against crime." To
> measure general confidence in police, eight items about the police
> were presented. These include "The police do their job well" and "The
> police are there when you need them."
>
> To study whether support for vigilantism is related to specific police
> responsivess, we varied police responsiveness between conditions. In
> the high responsiveness condition, a police officer shows up at the
> store to pose questions about the shoplifting. He promises more
> frequent surveillance of the store, and gives the storeowner a phone
> number so he can be reached at all times. In the low responsiveness
> condition, the storeowner does not hear back from the police after
> sending the tapes. Upon contacting the police again herself, she is
> told that they do not have time to deal with the shoplifting.

> focused on variations in the amount of vigilante violence used. In the
> low violence condition, the vigilante hits the shoplifter, resulting

> shoplifter falls to the ground after being hit by the vigilante. The
> storeowner then goes on to kick her in the head, leaving her with a

> Data were collected by handing out questionnaires to train passengers

> Findings
>
> The average level of support for the presented case of vigilantism is
> 2.73 on a five-point scale. Respondents are overall thus not very
> positive about the act of vigilantism in the vignette. The item that
> resulted in most agreement is "Ann should have looked for another
> solution" indicating that vigilantism is not the preferred reaction to
> the shoplifting. Nonetheless, a large majority — 74 per cent —
> expressed an understanding for the vigilante's behaviour. Another
> noteworthy observation is that less than 12 per cent of respondents
> felt pity with the victim of vigilantism.
>
> The mean rating of confidence in police is 3.13, which lies slightly

> expressed least agreement with the item "The police are there when you

>
> Interestingly, this matches the topic of concern for police

> with an item expressing respect for police. This implies that
> dissatisfaction with certain aspects of police does not necessarily
> cause an overall lack of respect for them.
>
> We analysed the role of various determinants of support (i.e. general
> confidence in the police, police responsiveness to the precipitating
> incident, and level of vigilante violence). The findings indicate that
> more general confidence in police results in less support for
> vigilantism. Importantly, however, the additional impact of
> situational characteristics reveals that support for vigilantism is
> not only attributable to a low level of confidence. Police
> responsiveness also played a role: the more actively the police
> responded after receiving the report and footage of the shoplifting,
> the less the subsequent vigilantism act was supported. Likewise, the
> violence used by the vigilante affected support: a more violent
> vigilantism act led to less support.
> Conclusion
>
> Our study provides empirical evidence for the often-assumed relation
> between support for vigilantism and confidence in police. However,
> confidence in police did not only play a role on the general level:
> police responsiveness on a situational level also affected support.
> When police were less responsive to the report of shoplifting, people
> expressed more support for the subsequent act of vigilantism.
>
> Importantly, this suggests that the role of police in the event
> leading up to vigilantism can have a considerable impact on public
> opinion about a specific case. In our study, when police took the
> victim of shoplifting seriously and showed genuine interest in the
> case, this already affected public response to a subsequent act of

>
> Our findings suggest that the impact of the actions of criminal
> justice agencies on a concrete, situational level should not be
> underestimated as they may play an important role in the events
> leading up to an act of vigilantism.
>
> Even if someone has a high level of general confidence in the police,
> he may support vigilantism when he perceives them to have failed in
> their response to a specific crime situation. As such, police
> responsiveness may be a factor leading to or preventing an act of
> vigilantism itself.
>
> To prevent vigilantism, police may therefore be advised to put
> substantial effort into explaining their response to a crime, or lack
> thereof, to those involved and to society. Although this is
> speculative, our findings so far do stress the importance of the
> response of police to a crime on a situational level.
>
> Furthermore, as some acts of vigilantism may be impossible to prevent,

Billy McGillicuddy's lawyer asks for more time to review evidence
relating to 6 charges

Billy McGillicuddy faces six criminal charges, including possession of
a weapon for the purpose of committing an offence, assault with a
weapon, unlawful confinement and unlawfully pointing a firearm. (Billy
McGillicuddy/Facebook)
A St. Croix man who allegedly took the law into his own hands in
nearby McAdam is expected to enter a plea next month on six charges
stemming from incidents on June 4.
Billy McGillicuddy, 41, appeared in Fredericton provincial court on
Friday by telephone for what was scheduled to be a plea on the
charges.
But Reid Chedore, his lawyer, asked the judge for an adjournment for
more time to review discovery.
McGillicuddy is accused of possessing a weapon, a baseball bat, for
the purpose of committing an offence, and with assaulting Blake Scott
with a weapon, a baseball bat.
He's also accused of assaulting Scott with a weapon, a chair,
unlawfully confining him, pointing a sawed-off shotgun at him, and
possessing a sawed-off shotgun for the purpose of committing an
offence.
All the charges stem from incidents that occurred in McAdam, about 10
kilometres east of St. Croix, on June 4.
The court agreed to have McGillicuddy appear again the morning of July 14.
Chedore declined to comment on the case on Friday.
Community rallies around accused
McGillicuddy was in court last week for a bail hearing, where Judge
Mary Jane Richards ultimately rejected his application.
He remains in custody in Saint John.
About 50 people showed up for his first bail hearing date last
Thursday to show support for him outside the courthouse, including
McAdam Mayor Ken Stannix.
Stannix at the time said community members were fed up with
reoccurring property crimes, adding he wanted to support "the
individuals who allegedly took the law into their own hands."
Another person had been arrested but was released without being charged.

About 20 people showed up outside the courthouse on Friday, with some
wearing shirts with "#JUSTICEFORBILLY" printed on them.
Last Thursday, the New Brunswick RCMP issued a statement asking people
not to commit acts of vigilantism.
"Anyone involved in vigilante activities risk facing arrest and legal
proceedings themselves," the RCMP said.
"Taking police matters into your own hands, or condoning those who do,
is irresponsible and reckless."

McAdam residents rally around man accused of 'taking law into own hands'
Man accused of 6 crimes, including pointing firearm, assault with a
weapon and forcible confinement

in the village and how it's policed. (Joe McDonald/CBC)
About 50 people from McAdam, including the mayor, turned out at the
Fredericton courthouse Thursday to support a villager facing charges
after what some are describing as a case of vigilante justice.
Villagers are fed up with property crimes by frequent reoffenders,
Mayor Ken Stannix said in a an interview from outside the courthouse.
"The criminals are getting away with everything," he said.
"I wanted to support the individuals who allegedly took the law into
their own hands."
Billy McGillicuddy, 41, of St. Croix, N.B., appeared by video in court
later in the day for a bail hearing in connection with six criminal
charges, including pointing a firearm, a sawed-off shotgun, assault
with a weapon, a baseball bat, and forcible confinement against Blake
Scott.

Blair/Submitted)
The charges all stem from incidents that allegedly happened on June 4.
Defence lawyer Gerald Pugh called on three witnesses to testify as
part of the hearing, for which a publication ban was in effect.
Judge Mary Jane Richards reserved her decision on whether to grant
bail until Friday.
Another person was arrested but released without being charged.
Defenders see 'hard-working individual'
Only three supporters were allowed into the courthouse because of
COVID precautions, said Rosemary Blair, a Fredericton woman who knew
the accused as a former pastor.
"We know he's a good man," she said of the accused.
Both of the people arrested were "fathers, hard-working individuals,"
Stannix said.
McGillicuddy is a former minister from the McAdam Fellowship Church,
who worked with youth and "had a very positive impact on the
community," he said.
The man released earlier is a contractor.
"They're just solid people within the community, he said.
"It just gives you an idea of the level of frustration that people are
going through."
Problem going on for years
Stannix and Blair said this issue has been building for a number of years.
Stannix said there have been incidents such as a gas tank being
drilled to steal $20 worth of gas from an elderly person, who then had
to spend hundreds of dollars on repairs.
A contractor also had equipment stolen from the back of a vehicle, he said.
It may seem minor, said Stannix, but incidents like these are "unsettling."
"So, yes, people reached a boiling point."
Stannix said he has spoken with the RCMP and the provincial Department
of Justice and Public Safety and has meetings planned to discuss the
issue in the next couple of weeks.
He said he also hopes to hold a public meeting in McAdam where people
can voice their concerns.
Vigilante actions 'irresponsible,' RCMP say
The New Brunswick RCMP posted a warning Thursday against anyone
planning to take justice into their own hands.
In a news release issued on its website and Facebook page, the force
didn't name McGillicuddy or refer to any incident on June 4, but said
it wanted to address "current conversations and actions regarding
so-called 'vigilante justice' in New Brunswick."
"We understand the frustrations being voiced in some of the
communities we serve across New Brunswick," the RCMP said.
"Every crime that is committed has an effect on the victim and those
around them, and it impacts our wider sense of safety. We know people
in our communities want to feel safe, and want action.
"No one, however, can operate outside the law to address those that
are believed to be breaking it."
Victims urged to tell police
Police work is complex, the RCMP said, and while the public might want
a faster outcome, officers cannot circumvent their responsibilities
under the law.
"Those who attempt to take matters into their own hands outside the
legal process put themselves, and their communities, at risk.
"Anyone involved in vigilante activities risk facing arrest and legal
proceedings themselves. Taking police matters into your own hands, or
condoning those who do, is irresponsible and reckless."
Anyone who is a victim of crime should report it to police, the RCMP said.

Bail denied for N.B. man at centre of alleged act of vigilantism
Billy McGillicuddy to remain in custody on 6 charges

Billy McGillicuddy, 41, of St. Croix is facing six criminal charges,
including possession of a weapon for the purpose of committing an
offence, assault with a weapon, unlawful confinement and unlawfully
pointing a firearm. (Billy McGillicuddy/Facebook)
A judge has denied bail for a man accused of assault and weapons
charges stemming from what residents of the southwestern New Brunswick
village of McAdam say was an act of vigilante justice.
Provincial court Judge Mary Jane Richards ordered 41-year-old Billy
McGillicuddy of St. Croix, near McAdam, to remain in custody.
She issued her decision Friday in Fredericton following a bail hearing
the day before, the details of which are subject to a publication ban.
McGillicuddy is accused of possessing a weapon, a baseball bat for,
the purpose of committing an offence, and with assaulting Blake Scott
with a weapon, a baseball bat.
He's accused of assaulting Scott with a weapon, a chair, unlawfully
confining him, and pointing a sawed-off shotgun at him.
McGillicuddy also faces a sixth charge, of possessing a weapon, a
sawed-off shotgun, for the purpose of committing an offence.
All the charges stem from incidents that occurred in McAdam, about 10
kilometres east of St. Croix, on June 4.
Three women sat in the gallery of the courtroom Friday and appeared
emotionally upset when the decision was announced.
They left the courthouse and were met by supporters who hugged and
comforted them.

Fredericton provincial court on Friday after he was denied bail.

McGillicuddy, who appeared in court by video, was remanded into
custody and is scheduled to appear again in court on June 17.
Smaller turnout of supporters
Provincial court sheriffs set up metal crowd control barriers outside
the courthouse Friday, but only about five people showed up.
It was a smaller turnout than Thursday, when about 50 people from
McAdam, including Mayor Ken Stannix, showed up to voice support for
McGillicuddy.
In an interview Thursday, Stannix said he wanted to support "the
individuals who allegedly took the law into their own hands."
Another person had been arrested but was released without being charged.
Stannix said he and other community members feel that crimes are being
committed against them, and that the RCMP are not responding
effectively.
On Thursday, the New Brunswick RCMP issued a statement urging against
acts of vigilantism.
"Anyone involved in vigilante activities risk facing arrest and legal
proceedings themselves," the RCMP said.
"Taking police matters into your own hands, or condoning those who do,
is irresponsible and reckless."

Alleged case of vigilante justice in McAdam, N.B. prompts public meeting

Published June 10, 2022 7:24 p.m. ADT
The mayor of McAdam, N.B., says he’s hopeful, this time, something
will be done about the amount of crime his community has faced over
the last several years.
Ken Stannix says it’s mostly property-related crime by the same
handful of culprits, and that it’s drug-motivated.
At first, he says residents would call him frustrated – but lately –
the amount of repeat incidents have had them fearful to live in their
own homes. In one case, he says an elderly resident’s gas tank was
punctured to get $20 worth of gas, but caused $600-$800 worth of
damage.
It may have come to a head recently, although the details are under a
publication ban.
Billy McGillicuddy was arrested and charged with confinement, assault
with a weapon and pointing a firearm, among others after an alleged
incident.
Many McAdam residents are supporting the accused, saying they had to
take justice into their own hands – and they’re unsatisfied with the
response from the RCMP to crime in their community.
McGillicuddy was denied bail on Friday. He’s scheduled to be back in
court on June 17. Stannix says the community is “pretty disappointed”
with that decision.
The N.B. RCMP addressed, what they call "vigilante justice," in a statement.
“We need the public to understand the role police play in conjunction
with courts, governments and communities, and the complexity of the
work we undertake every day. There are no quick solutions regarding
crime,” wrote the RCMP.
The province’s public safety minister said Friday that a public
meeting is being arranged, and the RCMP will be involved.
“These issues are not just unique to McAdam. I mean obviously, the
vigilantism is unique currently to McAdam but we do want to provide
citizens with a sense of safety, a real sense of safety,” said Bill
Hogan.
“I think it's truly unfortunate that it happened. I'm disappointed
that citizens have been driven to that point. Because we want citizens
to feel safe so they don't have to resort to that, and we're going to
look and see what options we have available.”
He continued by saying that the province is already looking into some
options to try and “combat the sense of helplessness that some people
feel in rural New Brunswick.”
Stannix is hopeful that positive change will come from the situation.
He is concerned about what might happen if change doesn’t come.
“Who do they turn to for protection? If the criminals are the only
ones being protected by the law, then we all become criminals,” he
said.

I have been the leader of NEIGHBOURHOOD WATCH in and around the rural
areas of the former Local Service District of Southampoton (north and
west of the Town of Nackawic) for the past 17 years. We wish to
express our shared frustration with you, the community leaders and
residents of the Village of McAdam, on the uptick in rural crime in
our province. Again and again, we see the emotions of those who have
been the object of theft, vandalism and petty crime boil over into
situations where community members take matters into their own hands.
We offer our support to you as you seek to solve these issues. We have
helped various neighbourhoods set up NEIGHBOURHOOD WATCH programs as a
means of detering crime. We wish you all the best in bringing these
issues to a successful resolution. As we know - crime is never going
to be completely eliminated, but through community programs and
participation, it CAN BE cut back. All the best!

Taking matters into your own hands
Public support for vigilantism and confidence in police
The Dutch study sought to determine whether support for vigilantism is
linked to a lack of confidence in police. Credit: Robert Hoetink

de Keijser, Leiden University
Beating up shoplifters, stabbing sex offenders and shooting robbers:
these types of violence do not only result in outrage, but also in
public support. In Canada in 2009, there was quite a controversy when
storeowner David Chen was arrested for chasing a repeat shoplifter and
locking him up in his van. Chen was charged with assault and forcible
confinement. The criminal charges and trial sparked a heated public
debate. Was Chen a hero or a criminal?
Chen was not convicted for the use of excessive violence against the
suspect; he was acquitted. There are numerous cases in which citizens
have used considerable violence against alleged criminals and were
subsequently praised for doing so by the public. These cases sparked
heated debates about private action and the boundaries and
shortcomings of law enforcement. The public showed admiration for the
vigilantes and labelled their behaviour as righteous justice.
When citizens express support for crime and criminals, this begs the
question what causes such reactions. Public support for vigilantism is
frequently interpreted as a sign that citizens have lost confidence in
the police.
After all, when citizens applaud those who take the law into their own
hands, does that not imply that they believe that they cannot count on
the police to properly deal with the situation?
Citizens who take the law into their own hands defy the state monopoly
on the legitimate use of force. The police are commonly seen as the
embodiment of this monopoly, as they tend to be much more visible to
the public than other criminal justice professionals. It is thus
understandable that when citizens support illegitimate acts in
response to crime, this is considered a sign that police confidence is
at stake. But is this really the case?
To find out, we conducted a study to assess whether support for
vigilantism is attributable to a lack or low level of confidence in
police. Importantly, we distinguished between confidence in police on
both a general and specific level.
Method
We presented a vignette, or brief case study, about an act of
vigilantism to our respondents, and asked them to answer some
questions. The vignette describes two criminal acts: a precipitating
shoplifting crime and a subsequent violent act of vigilantism. The
story concerns Ann, a storeowner who suspects a particular customer
has been shoplifting. Her suspicion is corroborated by evidence from
surveillance tapes. She sends the video footage to the police, hoping
that they will undertake some action. A few days later, that same
customer enters her store again. This time the woman steals a t-shirt,
but upon realizing that she has been seen, manages to escape. The next
day, the storeowner is downtown on a day off when she happens to catch
sight of the shoplifter. She forcefully grabs the woman's arm and
physically assaults her.
After reading the vignette, respondents completed a survey.
Respondents indicated their agreement with various statements using a
response scale that varied between one (fully disagree) to five (fully
agree). The support for vigilantism measure was comprised of 16 items,
addressing various aspects such as approval of vigilantism, empathy
with the offender and the victim, punishment, deservingness and blame.
These included items such as "What Ann did is justified" and "Thanks
to people like Ann at least something is done against crime." To
measure general confidence in police, eight items about the police
were presented. These include "The police do their job well" and "The
police are there when you need them."
To study whether support for vigilantism is related to specific police
responsivess, we varied police responsiveness between conditions. In
the high responsiveness condition, a police officer shows up at the
store to pose questions about the shoplifting. He promises more
frequent surveillance of the store, and gives the storeowner a phone
number so he can be reached at all times. In the low responsiveness
condition, the storeowner does not hear back from the police after
sending the tapes. Upon contacting the police again herself, she is
told that they do not have time to deal with the shoplifting.
We were furthermore interested in finding out whether support for
vigilantism also depends on situational factors. Specifically we
focused on variations in the amount of vigilante violence used. In the
low violence condition, the vigilante hits the shoplifter, resulting
in a black eye and a headache. In the high violence condition, the
shoplifter falls to the ground after being hit by the vigilante. The
storeowner then goes on to kick her in the head, leaving her with a
broken jaw and a heavy concussion.
Data were collected by handing out questionnaires to train passengers
in the Netherlands. This method allowed us to reach a mixed sample of
Dutch citizens relatively easily. The response level was 70 per cent,
resulting in a final sample of 385 people. Mean age was 35 years; 55
per cent was male.
Findings
The average level of support for the presented case of vigilantism is
2.73 on a five-point scale. Respondents are overall thus not very
positive about the act of vigilantism in the vignette. The item that
resulted in most agreement is "Ann should have looked for another
solution" indicating that vigilantism is not the preferred reaction to
the shoplifting. Nonetheless, a large majority — 74 per cent —
expressed an understanding for the vigilante's behaviour. Another
noteworthy observation is that less than 12 per cent of respondents
felt pity with the victim of vigilantism.
The mean rating of confidence in police is 3.13, which lies slightly
above the neutral midpoint of the scale (i.e. 2.5). Respondents
expressed least agreement with the item "The police are there when you
need them."
Interestingly, this matches the topic of concern for police
responsiveness to the precipitating crime. Most agreement was found
with an item expressing respect for police. This implies that
dissatisfaction with certain aspects of police does not necessarily
cause an overall lack of respect for them.
We analysed the role of various determinants of support (i.e. general
confidence in the police, police responsiveness to the precipitating
incident, and level of vigilante violence). The findings indicate that
more general confidence in police results in less support for
vigilantism. Importantly, however, the additional impact of
situational characteristics reveals that support for vigilantism is
not only attributable to a low level of confidence. Police
responsiveness also played a role: the more actively the police
responded after receiving the report and footage of the shoplifting,
the less the subsequent vigilantism act was supported. Likewise, the
violence used by the vigilante affected support: a more violent
vigilantism act led to less support.
Conclusion
Our study provides empirical evidence for the often-assumed relation
between support for vigilantism and confidence in police. However,
confidence in police did not only play a role on the general level:
police responsiveness on a situational level also affected support.
When police were less responsive to the report of shoplifting, people
expressed more support for the subsequent act of vigilantism.
Importantly, this suggests that the role of police in the event
leading up to vigilantism can have a considerable impact on public
opinion about a specific case. In our study, when police took the
victim of shoplifting seriously and showed genuine interest in the
case, this already affected public response to a subsequent act of
vigilantism, despite the fact that arrests were not yet made.
Our findings suggest that the impact of the actions of criminal
justice agencies on a concrete, situational level should not be
underestimated as they may play an important role in the events
leading up to an act of vigilantism.
Even if someone has a high level of general confidence in the police,
he may support vigilantism when he perceives them to have failed in
their response to a specific crime situation. As such, police
responsiveness may be a factor leading to or preventing an act of
vigilantism itself.
To prevent vigilantism, police may therefore be advised to put
substantial effort into explaining their response to a crime, or lack
thereof, to those involved and to society. Although this is
