Deserter Wins Reprieve

By immlawyer

ADVERTISEMENTS

Jeremy Hinzman wins a reprieve - obtaining a stay of his deportation order.

Hinzman's counsel, Alyssa Manning, argued that outspoken critics of the US invasion of Iraq faced harsher treatment than other deserters.

It appears that fellow deserter Robin Long was sentenced to 15 months in prison as a result of his desertion (and US prosecutors made mention of his Canadian media interview).

Justice Mosley of the Federal Court seemed to take note of the 'differential treatment' argument advocated by Hinzman's counsel.
