R. v. I.M.

(403) 452-8018

R. v. I.M.

(Calgary, P.C.).   While serving a conditional sentence order I.M. was charged with break and enter, uttering threats and sexual assault.  Bail was contested.  The Crown sough IM's detention on the primary and secondary grounds. After a strongly contested bail hearing I.M. was released on conditions.  Obtaining bail is critical to properly defending any charge. The fact is, if an accused is in custody, there is a much greater likelihood that certain avenues of defence may be compromised and that the detainee might lose interest in fully defending the case. Once deprived of the desire and/or ability to fully defend the case, the advantage on a variety of matters, including resolution, shifts in favour of the Crown.
