A look at Brock Anton’s criminal history before the Vancouver riot.
After seeing the devastation of the Vancouver riots and sharing in the collective craving to see that justice be meted out to those involved, DoubleHearsay has been scouring the criminal court lists for information about charges being laid in connection with the riot.
