Counsel: Tonii Roulston
Offence: Sexual Assault (s.271 CC)
Result: Peace Bond
Our client was accused of sexually assaulting his ex-girlfriend while they were in a relationship. Tonii brought forward a Charter application arguing that the police unlawfully obtained text messages between the parties. Tonii also brought a s.276 application to bring into evidence prior sexual history between the client and the complainant. Tonii negotiated with the Crown, leading to a common-law peace bond. The client was not convicted and avoided a criminal record.
