#BREAKING Yet another criminal case against Jeremy MacKenzie has resolved in his favour. Twelve firearms charges in Pictou, NS got withdrawn in exchange for a common law peace bond. This is the fourth set of charges dropped across three provinces. #cdnpoli #ProtestMania
Stay tuned for an in-depth look at the Prosecution of Jeremy MacKenzie so far, and what remains outstanding.
@CarymaRules A peace bond is a protection order made by a court under section 810 of the Criminal Code. It is used where an individual (the defendant) appears likely to commit a criminal offence, but there are no reasonable grounds to believe that an offence has actually been committed.
@CarymaRules Is there any way to quantify the costs of the JM debacle? How much has been spent in court time, jail time, etc, etc, because CAHN embellished the truth?
@CarymaRules Why do people even agree to these Peace Bonds. If the crown is offering this as an option it means the case has fallen apart and they know they can't win at trail. Lawyers should advise their clients better. David Menzies got screwed because he entered into a Peace Bond. 🙄
@CarymaRules Due process has evolved into "Abuse of process" in Canada.
