And...in turn, AM 980 explains why this story was/is newsworthy. I have to agree with AM980 over the Free Press with regard to this.

In related news, his court date is now pushed back to February, and there's a publication ban on the matter now.

Lawyer appeared briefly in court yesterday. His case is now March 7th. I have a feeling that his career is done done done...

It's not over until it's over. This mysterious woman may turn out to be another Nafissatou Diallo.

He could always serve a week, then embark on a second career by opening up a payday loansharking business, or poodle-grooming outlet.

While home on vacation last year, Dan and his girlfriend as well as his parents stopped in and had a visit with us while on vacation in Cape Breton last year. He is a decent person and I feel that the media is convicting him before he has a fair trial. Remember people......Dan is innocent until proven guilty in a court of law and he has an excellent lawyer in Gord Cudmore. Not too hard to see the media bias is it?

Definitely...don't forget, this is Megan Walker City, where men are the one and only enemy against humankind.

And yet she has been with at least one man. I went to school with one of her daughters. In fact I had a crush on her at one point...that ended once I found out who she was.

Sperm donors could negate that as being with a man part.

Dan's case has been put over yet again http://www.fm96.com/channels/newsinf...spx?ID=1665973. There could be a number of reasons for the hold up such as waiting for disclosure (evidence) from the Crown before making a decision to go to trial or perhaps negotiate a plea deal, court logistics aka lack of courtroom space, or the lawyers just need it put over for another reason. What is hilarious is you usually have to go to go back to court on another day to set a date for another hearing.

You could have reached out to her. Had she been saved, it would have been a win-win situation: a girlfriend for you, and one less feminazi for society.

There's more legal trouble for CTV London's former 6 o'clock news anchor.

Dan MacLellan has now been charged with breaching conditions of his release.

AM980 has confirmed MacLellan was arrested and charged with failure to comply last Saturday (April 7th) in London. He spent the night in custody, appeared before a judge by way of video link on Easter Sunday (April 8th), and was released from custody the same day.

Absolute Discharge - I think the fact he lost his job and the fact he'll never be able to return to any media outlet doing what he loved was a big enough punishment.

http://www.lfpress.com/news/london/2.../20083551.html

Quote:
Standing in front of a judge after pleading guilty to assaulting his former girlfriend, former London TV anchor Dan MacLellan said he has learned "that from pain comes wisdom and it come comes in spite of ourselves."

Until last Christmas Eve, MacLellan was the face of the local newscast for almost a decade and a southwestern Ontario celebrity.

That was before the drunken pushing match with his then-girlfriend that led to him placing her in a headlock on the couch.

And it led to a very public shame.

It turned out MacLellan had a deep-seeded secret - a childhood marred by physical violence that put him on a path of alcohol and rage.

In other news, I hear that Tim Best lost his appeal and must serve out the remainder of his 6-month jail sentence.

I feel bad for Dan spent his life building his reputation and doing great things for the community, and because of one stupid mistake, that he admits, his career his over.

Meanwhile that scumfeeder opportunist Tim Best, tried to use his political connections to get off, still denies drunk driving and hitting people. Hopefully the same occurs to best and his crappy bar loses its LLBO!

If I had my own media outlet, I'd hire him in a heartbeat, as long as it wasn't in Ontario. At least he never has been seen making inappropriate comments on TV, unlike Gord Martineau and Detroit's Bill Bonds - neither of whom ever got in trouble.

I'd give him a chance to prove that he can change.
