I read another article about this case yesterday, and IMO that prosecution was an absolute abomination that never should have happened.

What the jury didn't hear at the murder trial of Umar Zameer​

Judge at trial of man accused of killing cop questioned Crown's 'morphing' position​

I understand the deep grief and anger of Toronto police over the death of one of their own. But it is the greatest shame for an officer to perjure themselves under oath. It destroys the fabric of Justice.

And it was despicable of Ford and Tory to speak on this without knowing the facts (or worse, knowing them but wanting to score political points.)

A man out for the day with his family? Planned to murder a cop? In the city hall parking garage? Sounds implausible. What if it had happened to you?
