Counsel: Tonii Roulston
Offence: Criminal Harassment (s.264(2)(b) CC)
Result: Peace Bond, Charges Withdrawn
Our client was charged with criminal harassment due to allegations of repeatedly communicating with the complainant. Tonii Roulston raised significant issues with the Crown, including that the alleged conduct did not meet the legal threshold for harassment and that the complainant could not reasonably be said to have feared for their safety, which is required to prove the offence of criminal harassment. for repeated communications. As a result, the matter was resolved by way of a Peace Bond. The charges were withdrawn, and our client avoided a criminal conviction and record.
