Guy Lafleur has been found guilty of providing contradictory evidence at the bail hearing of his son, Mark Lafleur. I’m not surprised (I’ve called him an enabler in the past) but I’m definitely saddened. I know that Guy loves his son but I think the best thing he could have done would have been to let Mark face the consequences of his actions.

Mark Lafleur was facing a number of serious charges and, while he was awaiting trial, he had to abide by a court-ordered curfew. Guy agreed to make sure his son followed the rules but then it was revealed that he had driven Mark to a hotel to meet with his underage girlfriend on more than one occasion.
Now, the former Montreal Canadiens superstar will have to wait until June 8, 2009 to find out about his sentence. The Crown is asking that Lafleur be given a conditional sentence while the defence is seeking a simple fine but the maximum prison sentence for this crime is 14 years.
