Not a very kosher case, this one

The Bellend of the Month for October 2017 is Reza Moazami, who was convicted of luring 11 teens into prostitution and sentenced to 23 years jail time, and is apparently now suing the Attorney General of Canada claiming he was wrongfully denied kosher meals in prison. Moazami was found guilty on 30 charges in 2015, including sexual exploitation, sexual assault, and living off the avails of prostitution. His 11 victims ranged in age from 14 to 19, and his case was the first human-trafficking conviction in British Columbia. At trial, the court heard Moazami, then in his mid-20s, recruited vulnerable girls by promising them drugs, alcohol, and in one instance a puppy. A B.C. Supreme Court notice of claim filed by Moazami states he was denied a kosher diet for approximately nine months due to negligence on the part of correctional staff. The claim states Moazami is half Jewish and strictly abides by his religious principles — those that conform with Jewish dietary law. Moazami also claims he was discriminated against by correctional staff for being denied medications, and because his mail was illegally read and seized. Here's the deal: prison is supposed to be a punishment. If you're in there, it's because you did the wrong thing. Don't do the crime if you can't do the time.
