R. v. A.M. | 2023 | Toronto
Client is the successful owner of an influential Instagram page aimed at providing news and entertainment content to the Toronto hip hop community. In keeping up with relevant news, he received and then posted audio and visuals from a court proceeding that had been held by zoom. Covering the witness’ face with a cartoon picture of a rat was probably not the best decision since he was charged with a variety of criminal offences for obstructing justice and intimidating a witness. On the 5th day of trial however, he was acquitted of all charges and remains free of any criminal record.
