A Verdun resident has been charged with posting hate messages on social media, while also uttering threats toward Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.
Jacques Roy, 47, appeared before a Quebec Court judge on Saturday after he turned himself in to the Montreal police on June 30, said Montreal police spokesperson Constable Jean-Pierre Brabant. Roy was released after agreeing to follow a series of conditions, and his case is scheduled to return to court on Oct. 3.
Brabant said the investigation began on March 26 after someone contacted the Montreal police and reported statements they had read on a social media page. The police investigated and found statements that were hateful toward Muslims, Islam and people from Syria. The author of the statements included Trudeau in some of what he posted, Brabant said.
An arrest warrant was issued on June 16 and the Montreal police were able to contact Roy for the first time last week. He agreed to turn himself in, with a lawyer, and was detained before he appeared in court.
The arrest warrant was made public at the Montreal courthouse over the weekend. In the warrant, Roy is accused of “encouraging hatred against an identifiable group.” The charges are based on statements Roy allegedly made between Feb. 1 and March 26, in a manner “other than a private conversation.” He is also accused of criminal harassment and uttering a threat toward Trudeau and “a member of his family” within the same time frame.
In February 2013, Roy was charged with assaulting a police officer. The charged was placed under a stay of proceedings the day after it was filed. On that same date, Roy pleaded guilty to willfully obstructing police in the execution of their duty. He was sentenced to one year of probation. Later on, in November 2013, Roy pleaded guilty to drug possession, and his sentence involved an unconditional discharge.
