The accused, J.E. was charged with assault on their partner. The accused was arrested and provided a statement to investigators at which he admitted everything he did in response to the victim’s actions was that of self defense. He declined to elaborate on the type of defense tactics that were used. The accused was then released from the station on a form 10 undertaking. The counsel was successfully able to get the charges for this case withdrawn with no admission of guilt, no criminal record, and not even a peace bond was signed in this case. The counsel was able to convince the crown that proceeding the prosecution is not in the public interest.
