Yes, this is huge news up here.
If you said "Paul Bernardo" or "Karla Homolka" to anyone here in Canada, they will know exactly what you are talking about.
The Crown made the "deal with the devil" because they wanted to get *HIM* (i.e. Paul Bernardo). So they did the 12 year deal, because they didn't think that they had enough to get Paul Bernardo.
Then the investigators found some videotapes of the two of them violating, torturing and murdering their victims, but alas, the deal with Karla Homolka had already been made.
Now that she is getting out after 12 years, everyone is up in arms. Karla Homolka is hoping to live in Montreal, and has been told not to return to St. Catherines, ON (which is where she was from...it's kinda near Niagara Falls).
Oh, and she had a relationship with an inmate who strangled and murdered his girlfriend, but he is a French National who will be deported back to France when his sentence is done.
There is a very comprehensive account of Paul Bernardo and Karla Homolka here:
