A Facebook page has been set up in protest of the pardon granted to convicted child sex offender Graham James.

The creator says she was disgusted to hear the former hockey coach was pardoned and that’s why she created the group “Convicted sex offenders should not be pardoned.”

Someone close to Amy experienced the same type of abuse and she feels people that take advantage of the vulnerable should not get a clean slate.

She says because of that she has to fight for justice.

She is encouraging people to join the Facebook group as well as contact their local MLA and MP.  Amy believes if everyone bans together, the criteria which determines pardon eligibility can be changed.
