Stockwoods successfully prosecutes senior Toronto police officer for misconduct over G20 kettling orders

In a decision released today, Superintendent Mark Fenton was found guilty of two counts of unnecessary use of authority, and one count of discreditable conduct, as a result of his orders to detain and arrest crowds of protestors at the Novotel Hotel, and at the intersection of Queen & Spadina during the 2010 G20 summit in Toronto.  In his decision, retired Superior Court Justice John Hamilton emphasized the right not to be arrested for peaceful protest activities, and the lack of understanding of protest rights demonstrated by Supt. Fenton.  Stockwoods lawyers Brian Gover, Brendan van Niejenhuis and Edward Marrocco acted as the independent Prosecutors for the hearing, having been appointed to that role by former Chief William Blair.  Media coverage can be found here, here, here and here.  The decision itself can be found here.
