It's now been assigned - courtroom 2-5

Looks likely to be submissions today, and the ruling at a later date, per AH's Article linked just now by Inspector North, above I thought today would see the long-overdue end to all of this, but I guess we're not quite there yet. It makes sense that Crown and Defence would have to argue their...

RSBM Very well put. Beautifully articulated.

andreww - I'm very sorry about your loss.

RSBM Etobicoke does fall under the TPS (Division 22), and I believe that both the first responding and the subsequent investigators were all with TPS. Of course, the investigation (esp. evidence gathering) did require coordination with forces from other jurisdictions. Toronto Police Service...

James Rackover was 'all in' participant in grisly death of 26-year-old Connecticut man: DA By SHAYNA JACOBS NOV 01, 2018 | 12:25 PM The “surrogate son” of a celebrity diamond dealer was a full participant in the thrashing and knifing death of a 26-year-old Connecticut man in an Upper East Side...

There's no regret or sorrow for the lives they destroyed, or for the pain they've caused their victims' families, or at least for DM there isn't. MS kept his face forward or down, with few exceptions, during the times I attended court. DM, on the other hand, made a point to smirk and grin at...

I don't think they ever really thought about consequences, beyond whatever immediate result they were seeking. It was stated by at least one of DM's friends that they felt immune and protected from negative repercussions with DM around. As for the impact on others, esp. those whose...

I can add to Abro's response (in post #1412). I was in court for the pre-trial hearing when the Crown was arguing for the inclusion of examples of what they considered to be evidence of escalating, thrill-seeking behaviour by Millard and Smich as a pair; these incidents were considered examples...

Same! Mystery finally solved.

Wow - a bit of a conspiracy theory there....

Good grief.....

IMO there was some element, however small relative to DM's other motivations, of WM having caught on to some of DM's more sinister criminal acts, and DM wanting to nip that in the bud. (Emphasis: IMO)

(RSBM) I believe it was in reference to the Crown seeking a consecutive sentence, not the judge. (I thought I had read something similar within the tweets, too, and went back for a re-read.)

Oh, of course he did. :mad: I spoke too soon. What a special monster he is.

Not the s**t-eating grin he expected to be boasting!!!!

Wow!!!! Whew. !!!

(RSBM) Only that testimony that doesn't have independent corroboration. The taxi call, phone locations throughout the night, etc will support several of her statements.

(RSBM) This!!! I had planned to be in court today, but couldn't be. It seems to be for the better; I don't think I could stomach the inevitable smug, smirking grin (and whatever other body language and communication) he'll be directing at the families and other spectators if he's found not guilty.

Hiya. It's scheduled for courtroom 2-5 at 10am. My question is - how does presenting the verdict work when it's a judge-only trial? Does the judge provide and read to the court the reasoning for the verdict? Or need she only return the verdict, and publish the written judgement details to...
