Petition for Master Cpl Fraser


Online Petition Started For Soldier Charged With Manslaughter

The family of a CFB Shilo soldier charged with manslaughter has launched a website and petition in an effort to clear him of wrongdoing in the death of a fellow member of the Canadian Forces in Afghanistan.
A brother of Master Cpl. Robbie Fraser says on the website that the death of 33-year-old Master Cpl. Jeffrey Walsh, also of CFB Shilo, was a “tragic accident” for which his brother has “already suffered immensely” since the incident last Aug. 9 near Kandahar.
Greg Fraser is seeking signatures for a petition aimed at imploring the federal government and military to withdraw the charge of manslaughter — which he notes carries a prison sentence of four years to life .
