This Blog will discuss politics, government, corruption, police, S.I.U., courts, education, min. of attorney general, min. of labour, v.o.i.c.e. and other current and past events of interest to concerned citizens. In the "About me" section to the right and down I have included the names of persons whom I have tremendous respect for. Their influence on me however has been primarily environmental (and personal) and this is therefore a disclaimer that all words posted on this Blog/Website are mine and I alone am responsible for them.

THE DIFFICULTY IN LAYING PERJURY CHARGES




The Waterloo Region Record carried a story last November 28/15 titled "No charges in police perjury allegation". Something is amiss if not downright bizarre in this case. First of all a judge stated in open court his opinion that police officer Nathan Boyle had been less than frank in his testimony. Then the judge followed up by stating that the officer's testimony "defied belief" and that the officer had "an ulterior motive".

The defendant who was acquitted later tried to file perjury charges against the officer in part based upon comments that the judge had made. The Justice of the Peace at that hearing has rejected perjury charges being laid against the officer. The former defendant had lawyer Davin Charney represent her at the hearing before the J.P.. The former defendant has also complained to the Office of the Independent Police Review Director (OIPRD). To date there is no information on that complaint.
