Caron, a Kingston area woman, who was charged with trying to hire someone to hurt Clifford Richards. Richards was murdered on 26 October 2010, at which time Ratte was already in custody, but he testified she discussed hiring someone to hurt Richards before his apprehension.

In June 2013, Ratte attacked Omar Khadr shortly after Khadr had been transferred to a prison in Edmonton.

Ratte received conditional release in March 2018. He was released under a peace bond that imposed an 11pm to 6am curfew upon him. After Ratte stayed out one night he asked a friend to phone his wife, and tell her he missed the curfew because he had been kidnapped by bikers.
