Monique Turenne
Extradition Order comes down
TURENNE
EXTRADITION COMES DOWN: Mar. 3, 2003 Monique Turenne's ex-inlaws and ex have been stirring things
up in her fight to be tried in Canada so she can clear her name
of murder charges in Florida. The Charles Adler show on CJOB,
and which is syndicated across the country, raised her case and
the old slanders on Friday. No one attempted to contact Turenne
for her side of the story -- the truth -- which is on this site.
Call CJOB and ask them to tell Monique's side of the story: 1-800-665-2202.
In Winnipeg, 780-6868.
The lies continue to be carried.
Monique Turenne never had an affair with Ralph Crompton. She
did not send her husband out to get Midol in order to send him
to a trap so Crompton could bludgeon him to death. Monique Turenne
does not use Midol. These particular lies came from the desperate
and imaginative mind of Ralph Crompton after he was already linked
to the crime. It is possible that Crompton himself was not involved
in the murder but was bullied into a confession.
It is also a lie that Monique
Turenne and her lawyer Greg Brodsky are trying to stall justice.
They want justice, not a fraudulant court. They simply want full
disclosure from the U.S. authorities so they can properly present
their case against the U.S. extradition order.
The request that Turenne be
tried in Canada is eminently reasonable since both she and her
murdered husband are Canadian. At trial in Canada Monique Turenne
could bring forth evidence -- discovered after his death -- that
he had underworld connections and that he was in debt to unsavoury
people.
As a citizen of Canada Monique
Turenne deserves to be tried in her own country where proper
evidence can be brought forth. Another Winnipeger unjustly charged
with murder, Thomas Sophonow has already paved the way to ensure
that full disclosure is a part of any trial.
Susan English and Pat Turenne
have told many lies to cover their greedy tracks as they hope
to benefit from their brother's estate by putting Monique Turenne
out of the picture. We will continue our coverage of this shameful
story where the Winnipeg police, the Florida district attorneys
and the media have cooperated with greedy relatives to destroy
the reputation of an innocent woman and her children.
Extradition order signed for
Canadian murder suspect
The Associated Press, March
3, 2003
A Canadian minister of justice
has signed an extradition order for woman charged with murdering
her husband, an officer in the Canadian Air Force stationed in
Florida, seven years ago.
Monique Turenne, 46, returned
to Winnipeg, Manitoba, before she was indicted with first-degree
murder in the beating death of Canadian Air Force Maj. David
Turenne on the lawn their Panama City home.
The 42-year-old victim was
serving with a U.S.-Canadian air defense unit at nearby Tyndall
Air Force Base.
Turenne has been fighting an
extradition order approved by a Canadian judge in 1999. Bay County
ruled out the death penalty so the Canadian government would
consider extradition.
A minister of justice signed
the order Tuesday, but the Manitoba court of appeals must also
make a ruling. If the appeals court upholds the decision, Turenne
can appeal to Canada's Supreme Court.
"I know the process, she's
going to appeal and all that, but this is the beginning of the
end," said David Turenne's sister, Suzanne English. "All
we ever wanted was for her to stand trial."
Monique Turenne's lover, Ralph
Edward Crompton, is serving a life sentence for first-degree
murder for his role in the officer's death. Crompton, 47, said
David Turenne was alive when he left and the victim's wife killed
him. Crompton is appealing his conviction.
