National Post: Widow of medic could go after Omar Khadr's $10.5M settlement: legal advisor
Tabitha Speer, the wife of the man Omar Khadr was convicted of killing, could 'absolutely' go after Khadr’s assets once he has some, Howard Anglin says.
OTTAWA — A reported multi-million-dollar payout from the Canadian government to former Guantanamo Bay prisoner Omar Khadr could create an opportunity for the widow of a man Khadr was convicted of killing in a firefight to seek compensation.
Tabitha Speer could “absolutely” go after Khadr’s assets once he has some, said Howard Anglin, a former deputy chief of staff and legal advisor to Conservative prime minister Stephen Harper.

WNU Editor: The ugly truth is that supporters of Omar Khadr do not like to focus too much attention on this part of the story .... they prefer to focus on what the Canadian government did and their complicity on how Omar Khadr was treated in Guantanamo .... and not on Omar Khadr's terrible crimes .... even though he was a child soldier when he committed them. This is very unfortunate .... because there is never any healing if this is the approach that is pursued .... for both Khadr and for the Speer and Morris families .... never.
