If you do it must be good stuff judging from what you have published in the past couple of years. From what I have seen so far, thanks to you and Mrs. Mitchell for a lot of hard work.<br /><br />Ellen Michaud<br />MonctonEllen Michaudnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20366972.post-59959274332913366072009-10-01T20:25:34.843-07:002009-10-01T20:25:34.843-07:00I was just thinking, would a case not have to be u...I was just thinking, would a case not have to be unbelievbly strong in the defendants favor, in order to expect any sympathy or relief from the government. What I am saying is that it was the government's appointed judges who refused action previously, so can we really expect more at this late date? <br /><br />Don't get me wrong. I am not saying that Wilbert Coffin was guilty. From all your investigation and writings on this affair, I would be the first to jump up and say that a miscarriage of justice occured. I am just curious as to your thoughts on this.<br /><br />D. Barry<br />Fredericton, N. B.D.

I believe that it was a 32-40 calibre. I know that looks mighty, but is it a powerful rifle? Would this be an appropriate calibre for someone in the woods to carry for protection? I know absolutely nothing about firearms. I believe this particular one was ruled out of the picture in this case anyway.<br /><br />C. Wells<br />BarrieC.

I remember reading where he staked claims for other people. He did that for money and I am not suggesting there is anything wrong with that. I believe that he also had claims staked in his own name as well. If all this is true, was there ever a record of these claims. I am just curious as to what happens to things such as that after Wilbert Coffin was executed?<br /><br />B. McPhee<br />Saint John, New BrunswickB.

Those decisions by the judges are quite interesting, and I believe that you are correct, their decisions are reflective of their daily moods.<br /><br />To M. Samuels from Parksville, quite possibly the most beautiful of all places in the Dominion, yes I agree with you about the list of people that I have come across thus far in this investigation being a long, interesting, and impressive one.<br /><br />To Bill McCleary from Burlington, the stuff that I am working on at present is very important and pertinent to the case as it contains legal opinions from those at the top charged with making decisions on this case.<br /><br />To Cyril H from Kingston, you are quite correct Cyril, there is absolutely nothing in this whole complete case that points to or proves that Wilbert Coffin was ionvolved in the crime of murder.<br /><br />Finally to K. Cassels from Edmonton, in answer to your question as to whether I ever studied law. A real quick answer to that. No, I never did. I studied communications. As you can tell I am a shy person and a man of very few words. I do appreciate your compliments though.<br /><br />Thanks again to everyone, always glad to hear from you. Just remember, be sure and sign your comment as I cannot publish anonymous comments, nor will I answer questions from an anonymous person.<br /><br />Lew Stoddard<br />Host of "Stoddard Online"Lew Stoddardnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20366972.post-32515854014723185862009-09-29T13:55:54.888-07:002009-09-29T13:55:54.888-07:00Just finished reading for the second time your com...Just finished reading for the second time your complete writing on the Wilbert Coffin affair. Based on what you say as factual documented information, you present a strong case and it should be taken serious. I am even going to write a letter to my member of parliament as she should take the time to read it as well. I am convinced that Wilber Coffin should never have been executed. I mean there is nothing that proves that he killed anybody. How the hell could the jury hang him and sleep well at night?Everbody should take the time to read this as hard to believe it is canada.<br /><br />Cyril H.<br />Kingston, OntarioCyril H.noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20366972.post-68598343251130574072009-09-29T13:29:13.033-07:002009-09-29T13:29:13.033-07:00I have a question for you and if you prefer not to...I have a question for you and if you prefer not to answer, I do understand. It is meant to be a compliment in any case.<br /><br />I am curious as to whether you studied some law? The reason that I ask that is because you write better than many lawyers and are much more articulate. <br /><br />I make that statement because I worked in a senior position in a large law office for a number of years and was a first hand witness to many pages of reports written by lawyers that would not come close to what I see you turning out on your web page.<br /><br />Keep up the good work Sir.<br /><br />K.

I thank you for taking the time to be such an ardent supporter of my web site.<br /><br />Now that I am on trial Joyce and you are the jury, I am prepared to answer the question that you have put before me.<br /><br />Joyce the elements that you asked me about, and would they have made a difference in a court of law if properly presented, I will answer in this way.<br /><br />In any court proceeding, the presentation of witnesses and evidence are fundamental to the accused receiving a fair and impartial hearing for the charge that he or she is facing. <br /><br />I believe, based on my Charter Of Rights And Freedoms, that when those rights and freedoms are breached, then the judiciary no longer exhibits those qualities and characteristics consistent with a fair process of law.<br /><br />Now that I have qualified my answer, I am prepared to officially state that my thoughts are unequivocal that Wilbert Coffin would never have been found guilty of the murder of Richard Lindsey based on the trial process, had it been conducted in a fair process of law, with all the elements involved presented for the jury to view.<br /><br />As you state Joyce, you are now the jury charged with making your decision. Speaking for myself, my case rests.<br /><br />Lew Stoddard<br />Host of "Stoddard Online"Lew Stoddardnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20366972.post-40850918014352583522009-09-24T00:45:20.464-07:002009-09-24T00:45:20.464-07:00By comparison I am curious as to what your serious...By comparison I am curious as to what your serious beliefs would be if the following question was possible to enact.<br /><br />For the first part of my question Mr. Stoddard I recognize the fact<br />from the indepth study that you did, you obviously saw where they found Wilbert Coffin guilty by way of the weakest of circumstantial evidence and took his life as punishment. <br /><br />For the second part if that same trial had been held and would have taken into account evidence that you found that was never presented, as well as calling as witnesses those who were willing to give evidence pertaining to elements of the trial, do you think it would have affected the outcome?<br /><br />I have to tell you Mr. Stoddard that in some ways I have had you on trial since I first started reading your account of this case more than two years ago.<br /><br />I have studied your style of writing, and paid close attention to your degree of sincerity. The fact that you state that you have studied this case for three years to satisfy your own curiousity lends much support to your determination to obtain results that you truly believed were there.<br /><br />I am the jury now Mr. Stoddard.

I am more convinced now than I was previously though. There is motive, they were in the right place at the right time to do the deed, and they knew the area. Further, their vehicle type matched another vehicle identified by a police officer that he saw in the forest.<br /><br />Thanks for your questions and comments Bent.
