R. v. A.B. - released today. This case was @robertnanni first appeal at the ONCA and the Court allowed the appeal after a long reserve! Good review of recklessness, wilful blindness, and appropriate jury instructions for mens rea for a sexual assault trial https://t.co/YxpvZQndUT

“It is difficult to imagine a more inappropriate use of the notwithstanding clause than in the criminal-justice realm. The bedrock Charter rights of criminal law are the rights of an unpopular and often vulnerable minority… with no political power” https://t.co/kIqnR1sfyQ

A fantastic outcome today for the @ClaOntario who intervened at the @SCC_eng in this important language rights case. Congratulations @alexheine93 and @plevay.

[John Struthers @johnstruthers]

A hero to me is a man who was terrorized by police, beaten by police, charged with murder by police, held for bail, attacked by the Mayor and the Premier for being released, besieged by an unsympathetic press and prosecuted on no theory who still thanks Canada for his freedom.

[Daniel Brown @DanielBrownLaw]

Here’s my take on the Zameer case. Despite reaching the correct result, this case is a black eye for the criminal justice system.
