Neck slasher gets three years' hard time:

21-year-old Corey James Johnston of St. John, New Brunswick was sentenced to 3 years for his role in an attack that took place this past August which left one man with his neck slashed.

Johnston was part of a robbery attempt where an ad was placed on the eBay owned kijiji for a flat screen TV for $1400. Johnston and an accomplice tried robbing the potential buyer and during the ensuing scuffle Johnston slashed the man's neck. The injuries to the man's neck were superficial but he did separate his shoulder in the scuffle.

Not surprisingly Johnston cried like a little girl during his sentencing.

Just like craigslist and even in Canada when sites like these provide almost total anonymity for its users the criminal element is bound to pervade.
