The scenario....
Some one is accused of assault.
In the police file, Three witnesses that include the alleged victim say nothing happened.
Did anything happen?
If you were a detective, would you proceed to charge the individual based in the evidence?
If you were a justice of the peace would you swear the information and allow the matter to proceed if he was charged? The justice of the peace could say no if they had a chance to review the file.
If you were a Crown attorney, when do you dispose of the matter and assign it to be withdrawn? Would it be a criminal offence to have charged someone on this evidence?
We all make mistakes; I suppose. I'm only joking.
What if you get legal representation and they don't see anything wrong? What if you hire another representative and they also say they don't see anything wrong but ask you if you would like to have a trial; a jury trial?
Maybe it's the water in that town or the milk?
What if all the income support in that country was paid unequally with some citizens recieving no Income support contrary to the Human Rights Code hanging over the Canadian Ombudsman's desk or on the Legislature wall or the desk of the Canadian Speaker of the House and this goes on for 40 years; on the wall? What if while there could be some minor differences, the support should be comparatively equal with all citizens recieving some income support? That would be what the law dictates.
If anyone was charged in this scenario, what are their legal rights and how are they to be compensated? As it is essentially Criminal Mischief to have proceeded with a charge and an information with no evidence to convict, the accused is a victim of crime. Can he seek compensation as a victim of crime? What are the other remedies?
