| every unsavoury CONFIDENTIAL INFORMANT learns about Teflon, learns how to skate |
Appropriate that : because skating, in the legal sense, is what this post is all about.
Like most “Injustice Collectors”, Gabriel Wortman’s illness first became apparent when he became an adult, around 20, while at UNB.
This meant that for the last 30 years of his life, an “Injustice Collector” like Wortman would ordinarily leave a wide trail through the legal system, civil as well as criminal.
The guy could apparently start an argument with a fence post : UNB dorm mates reporting he would always make a big deal out of the tiniest of things, with an inability to ever let it go. Voted UNB’s ”arsehole of the year” as a result.
A denturist uses that same word to describe him as a colleague.
I am sure the Halifax City public servants who had deal with Gabe over his signage or his unsightly premises would say much the same thing.
In Portapique, he burned down a building with a neighbour’s property in it, threatened another with his guns if he dared step on his property, raged against a neighbour with similar stonework to his.
He loved his wheels, loved to speed - hard to imagine his various speeding tickets were not confrontational at times.
In Dartmouth he twice bought homes - his choice - with zero setback so that a kid could not walk past his front door without being “too close”, in Gabe’s warped mind.
So Gabriel was always threatening the neighbourhood kids as a result and when he had a drink or two in him, beat some up so severely they ended up in hospital.
Yet in all these 30 years, you might notice, not ONCE did the rural RCMP ever have him up before a judge, and his encounters with the urban authorities always ended up, at worst, with summary convictions.
I will leave it to you to draw your own conclusions....
