Manage episode 432130107 series 2899369
What if the justice system could truly hold police accountable? Explore the intricate and troubling case from Prince George, starting with a tragic encounter between an Indigenous man and RCMP officers that led to his death. We'll unravel the story of a bystander's crucial video evidence, its controversial deletion, and the ensuing legal battles that spotlight the need for judicial transparency and independent investigations.
Two RCMP officers faced obstruction of justice charges. One officer's unconvincing testimony led to an acquittal, while a rookie officer's manifest dishonesty resulted in his conviction. Michael Mulligan of Mulligan Defence Lawyers joins us to provide expert analysis on the fine line between doubt and guilt, the complexities of police interactions with personal cell phones, and the preservation of evidence.
Our final chapters shift to financial and judicial complexities. A BC couple leaves vulnerable investors in ruins and declares bankruptcy to avoid paying a multi-million dollar penalty. The Supreme Court of Canada concludes that some, but not all, debts related to the case survived bankruptcy. Mulligan breaks down how the law navigates these high-stakes scenarios, ensuring that listeners walk away with a nuanced understanding of these pivotal legal issues.
