The man acquitted in a downtown Vancouver crash that claimed the life of a two-year-old girl will not face another trial after B.C.’s highest court dismissed an appeal from the Crown Friday.
This case has been going on for years. Back in 2023 there was this article about it, apparently the driver had been repeatedly firing his lawyers, possibly to delay court dates. I get the feeling that he was trying to find a legal team with connections to his judge and the will to use those connections, but no way to confirm that. Either way the behavior suggests to me deep pockets, despite his shitty car choice.
For those saying that if you were the father you’d take vigilante action, no you probably wouldn’t because you’d be dealing with life-altering injuries. The father is likely permanently immobile.
