Luciana Infusino-Tomei has been left alone to care for her young daughter during the COVID-19 pandemic after her husband was sent to prison last year on a drug-related charge.

Her husband, Adrian Tomei, is serving a three-year sentence at Beaver Creek Institution north of Toronto, after he pleaded guilty last year to possession of cocaine for the purpose of trafficking. But she says prisoners are unable to self-isolate and have limited access to hygiene and sanitary products, so sending those who are not a risk to public safety may be the best thing during a pandemic.

“My argument is that the pandemic is a public health risk for prisoners and the risk of getting the virus is a hardship that was not previously foreseen,” O’Connor says. He notes he has many clients who are older or have compromised immune systems that would cause major complications if they were to get the novel coronavirus.

Should be safest place to be because everything can be controlled. Of course a judge could say; too much punishment!!?

Sorry. Stay there and isolate them best you can

Should never happen. They went to jail for a reason.

No do the crime pay the time

Irony is when the ‘good guys’ are locked in their homes and the ‘bad guys’ are set free. Nope. They can practice proper protocols in their institutions, much as hospitals and nursing homes are doing.

Absolutely not! Easier to isolate in prison!

Of course she did.

Bah, it's going to be over in a couple weeks. Chill out.

Trafficking drugs. Nope. Stay in jail.

OMG, a convict’s wife is demanding us to release her douchebag criminal hubbie! WE. MUST. ACT. NOW.

We have Seniors livin homes with similar conditions and more of them have become sick and died but the media and bleeding hearts want to talk about this? Give me a brake.

Don’t be a criminal lol

Nope not they don’t deserve to be let out. They can isolate in jail.

Nope.

No isolate them in there. We don't need it spreading anymore than it is.

A lot of these people, arrested for non-violent crimes, are dangerous. By the time these criminals actually get to prison, they have committed many crimes and often away with them.

Oh no she’s a single mom now. So is every single other parents who copulated with a convict. You will find no pity from drug widows, divorcés, any law abiding citizen. Don’t feel bad for any drug dealers. Media should put an go fund me page for her & stop posting garbage.

No.

I'm a lot more concerned about the lives and safety of law abiding Canadians than the small risk inmates may face if they social distance by staying in their cells

Newly released inmates are sure to take their new freedom seriously and isolate themselves. What would the harm be?

no

Absolutely not!

Nope,..did the crime suffer the time...Jail time is only small relief for victims and what they’ve suffered!

Nope

Why would we expect lawbreakers to abide by the more stringent social distancing laws in place right now? Leave them in prison where they belong.

We have enough drug dealers and gangs on the street thanks! There are many single mothers and their child dealing with the coronovirus

Not a chance! Right where they belong.

Crime doesnt pay. He put himself there. People in nursing homes, now theres where I give a sht

Can they not isolate in cells?

Nope

Yeah the cocaine trade is non-violent. Lol can you please get serious!

Nope

No free pass for criminals because of COVID. That is the last thing we should be considering.

News flash - people are getting sick out here too. Maybe in the future if you don’t want to be stuck in jail during a pandemic, don’t break the law in the first place....

24 Sussex Drive

🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔HELL NO

Posting this every 2 hrs isn’t going to make more people agree with setting drug dealers and other criminals free.

Maybe your husband should prioritize and choose you, your daughter, and an honest living over dealing cocaine?

No

Nope. Did the crime do the time.

NO

Thousands of years Kurds are being in Quarantine in their Home Kudistan ! Every thing is forbidden for them, language, identity even their existence as a separated_nation because of the Arabic ,Turkish and Persian regimes and they still !

'Do something now:' Inmate's wife calls for release of non-violent offendersThe wife of a convicted drug trafficker says the federal government should release non-violent offenders from prison to reduce their risk of contracting COVID-19. Just me that thinks it’s impractical to release people who are potentially carrying the virus? 🤷🏻‍♀️ Ya, ok 🙄 So that means Trudeau would be able to leave his house?

China’s COVID-19 disinformation push, aided by Canadian group, raises concerns about next pandemicAs it claims to have snuffed out local transmission of COVID-19, the regime is casting the pandemic in a dramatically new light It is amazing how many people are giving China a pass on this, and deem any attempt to put the blame where it so obviously lies is “fear mongering” and “far right”. Why is the truth so difficult? The CCP gave us this mess. Denying it =complicity w/CCP. There is no question this virus came from China we were even warned a couple of times. Once in 2007 and again in 2013. China needs to be held to account This is reality and fact: “People of the world have all witnessed that it was under the leadership of the CPC (Communist Party of China) that the Chinese people first got infected by the coronavirus which originated in Wuhan a port city in China.
