Mr. Carr, an inmate in Millhaven, had his award upheld by the Federal Court Justice James Russell on June 2. Mr. Carr was stabbed in the bum with a plastic device in 2005 and has since been suffering from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder.

The taxpayers of Canada eased his suffering to the tune of $12,000.

Mr. Carr, who was serving a three-year term for robbery-related offences when he was attacked, is now living in the Hamilton, Ont.-area, awaiting his money.

You’re welcome.
