If cops will co-ordinate a lie in a murder trial even when they know there’s video disproving them, how far do they go when they know there’s nothing to disprove what they say?
This case should remind everyone how important and fragile the presumption of innocence is. Our police chief and political leaders were quick to toss aside that protection to push their own political agendas. Zameer deserves an apology from @fordnation and @TorontoPolice.

The chief should resign or be fired.
Important connections being made between anti-colonial struggles through the generations! AZADI *remains* a chant by KASHMIRIS - its as alive today as in the 1990s, difference being Indian colonial suppression making it harder for the world to hear the chants of my people.
This was pretty much a forgone conclusion for most lawyers and others knowledgeable about the legal system. This is what happens when the whole system is afraid to stand up to police.

BREAKING: Toronto police have tapped the OPP to conduct an independent review "as a result of the adverse comments made by Superior Court Justice Anne Molloy in the trial regarding the death of Detective Constable Jeffrey Northrup."
News Release - Toronto Police Chief asks OPP for Independent Review and Orders Internal Review of Plainclothes Procedures tps.to/59439

Police in Canada lie, file fake reports, have their testimonies thrown out by judges for corruption & much more without any ramifications for their actions … so why would they stop?
If cops will co-ordinate a lie in a murder trial even when they know there’s video disproving them, how far do they go when they know there’s nothing to disprove what they say?
This case should remind everyone how important and fragile the presumption of innocence is. Our police chief and political leaders were quick to toss aside that protection to push their own political agendas. Zameer deserves an apology from @fordnation and @TorontoPolice.

This case should also remind people why we have bail and the importance of it. If Mr. Zameer had not been granted bail he would have sat in prison for 3 years serving time for a crime he did not commit.
This case should remind everyone how important and fragile the presumption of innocence is. Our police chief and political leaders were quick to toss aside that protection to push their own political agendas. Zameer deserves an apology from @fordnation and @TorontoPolice.
lying under oath on top of a whole political smear campaign against this innocent man and his family and you’re just allowed to walk away smfh
@TPSMyronDemkiw @TPAReid As the Chief was leaving, he was asked if he would address allegations of perjury and collision in the testimony. The chief replied “today’s not the day for that. We will talk later.”
The chief should resign or be fired.
Chief Demkiw: “While we respect the judicial process and appreciate the work of the 12 citizens who sat on a very difficult case, I share the feelings of our members who were hoping for a different outcome.”

This protest at Columbia in Hindi has been posted across platforms as a “sinister” display. Here is the actual translation of what she’s saying: “What do we want?” (Freedom) “What do we want?” (Freedom) “Palestine’s” (Freedom) “Palestine’s” (Freedom) “We will grab it” (Freedom)…
This was pretty much a forgone conclusion for most lawyers and others knowledgeable about the legal system. This is what happens when the whole system is afraid to stand up to police.

As we await the verdict from the Zameer trial, here’s a pic of the police officers from *that* evening as they rushed his car while he had his pregnant wife and 2yo toddler with him. Northrup in mask. Last thing I’m thinking is that these people are plainclothes police officers.
Police have really made it so that if crime is up, the answer is we need more police, and if crime is down, the answer is police worked so we still need more police.
This white supremacist is the first person convicted in Canada under terrorism laws. Sentenced to life. Fuelled by hatred. He murdered a Muslim family. And this racist rag - the National post uses this photo and this headline. Everyone who writes for this rag is problematic
