RECOVERING POLITICIANS PANEL: DOUG FORD'S TAXPAYER REBATE Libby Znaimer is joined by George Smitherman, former Ontario Liberal Health minister and Deputy Premier, Cheri DiNovo, former NDP MPP and Lisa Raitt, former Deputy Leader of Conservative Party of Canada. It's Tuesday: time to talk politics. What are you going to do with the $200 Premier Doug Ford just promised every taxpayer in the province? And if that is not enough of an indication that the PC's are planning an early election, there is also yesterday's call for tougher bail restrictions. FORD GOVERNMENT CALLS ON OTTAWA TO GET TOUGH ON BAIL AND PRESENTS KEY DEMANDS Libby Znaimer is first joined by Ontario Solicitor General Michael Kerzner, followed by Joseph Neuberger, Criminal Defence Lawyer with Neuberger and Partners LLP. The Ontario government has key demands for Ottawa when it comes to bail reform. Our experts weigh in. EV CAR CRASHES: WHAT WE KNOW ABOUT SAFETY DURING A CRASH AND PUTTING OUT FIRES Libby Znaimer is joined by Jingwen Hu, Research Professor and Associate Director of the University of Michigan Transportation Research Institute, and Randy Narine, a professional firefighter and a Hazmat Tech who is also on the Board of Directors for the Clean Energy Safety and Training Council.

We reached out to the two experts to get a sense of safety around EVs.
The Government is toughening its new version of the Three Strikes law in order to capture more offenders. The first strike is a warning, a second strike means no parole, and for a third strike, offenders will have to serve the maximum penalty without parole. Criminal defence lawyer, Marie Dyhrberg, spoke with Corin Dann.
A criminal defence lawyer believes locking people up for longer won't necessarily make communities safer. Thousands more offenders are likely to be captured under the Three Strikes rule, following changes by Cabinet to toughen up the new regime. It's lowering the threshold for a first strike warning from 24 months imprisonment to 12 months. Roderick Mulgan told Ryan Bridge offending is complicated. He says it's not cause they're bad people, they offend because of things like substance abuse and lack of family support. Mulgan says the idea of putting people away and forgetting where you left the key, is a bit old fashioned. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

A criminal defence lawyer says the Polkinghorne trial is an example of the criminal justice system working. A jury has found eye surgeon Philip Polkinghorne not guilty of the murder or manslaughter of his wife Pauline Hanna at their Remuera home in April 2021. The verdict —given at the High Court in Auckland yesterday— followed 10 hours of deliberations over two days. Criminal defence lawyer Elizabeth Hall told Mike Hosking what we've seen play out is justice working. She says both the Crown and defence have worked very hard, the verdict is what it is, and New Zealanders need to see that it's justice working.

A criminal defence lawyer says the Polkinghorne verdict isn't a surprise. Eye surgeon Philip Polkinghorne was found not guilty of the murder or manslaughter of his wife Pauline Hanna at their Remuera home in April 2021. The verdict —given at the High Court in Auckland yesterday— followed 10 hours of deliberations over two days. Criminal defence lawyer Roderick Mulgan told Ryan Bridge if there's doubt, there has to be an acquittal. He says even though many people were suspicious, it's not enough. There's a high bar and it's difficult to convict people on circumstantial evidence. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
A criminal defence lawyer says it's very rare to see the public caught in the crossfire of a homicide. Since the start of August, Police have launched 11 homicide investigations around the country. One has since been deemed not a homicide and has been referred to the coroner. Lawyer John Munro told Ryan Bridge Police may be stretched. “The promising thing is that we have a very, very good Police force. They're very well-equipped, they're good Police, they're competent.” LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Send us a Text Message.In this episode, I speak with McCracken Poston Jr. on the topic of "Zenith Man", a story of death, love and redemption in a Georgia courtroom.★ McCracken's Bio: ★ McCracken King Poston, Jr. was born and raised in Catoosa County in Northwest Georgia. A four-term member of the Georgia House of Representatives, his world unraveled after a number of personal and professional setbacks, including a losing bid for the U.S. Congress.Soon, Poston found himself representing a most unusual client - a man once revered as a natural TV repairman who had also suffered several downfalls, including being accused of holding his wife captive in their basement for almost three decades before killing her. Poston went on to complete the representation of Alvin "Zenith Man" Ridley, and the community was shocked to hear the truth of what went on at the dilapidated house in Ringgold, Georgia.Only recently, Alvin Ridley was diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder, which explains much about how throughout his life he was misunderstood by his community.Poston's first book is a story of redemption, of more than one man in Catoosa County, Georgia.Poston went on from this case to a distinguished career as a criminal defense lawyer, with cases featured on television's "Forensic Files," A&E's "American Justice," and several national publications. He and his secretary continue to help Mr. Ridley, now eighty-one, making and getting him to appointments, and helping him navigate a neurotypical world.Connect with McCracken:https://www.mccrackenpostonjr.com/https://twitter.com/realzenithmanhttps://www.instagram.com/mccrackenpostonjr/https://www.facebook.com/McCrackenPostonJr/
TUNE INTO THE TOWN: CITY COUNCIL EXPECTED TO VOTE ON RENAMING OF YONGE-DUNDAS SQUARE TODAY Libby Znaimer is joined by David Crombie, a former mayor of Toronto, Alex Blumenstein, Co-Founder of The Peak, and Aleem Kanji, Principal at Aleem Kanji and Associates.

The Court of Appeal begins a second appeal into the Scott Watson murder case, today. Friends Ben Smart and Olivia Hope were last seen getting off a water taxi onto a yacht in the Marlborough Sounds on New Year's Eve more than 26 years ago. Watson was convicted of double-murder in 1999 following a three-month jury trial in the High Court in Wellington. It's accepted the pair met their deaths after boarding a stranger's yacht with a man -- the Crown says that man was Watson. Watson's always denied killing or even meeting them. This appeal is of his conviction -- and Watson's team can include new expert evidence about the reliability of forensic evidence. Criminal defence lawyer John Munro told Mike Hosking “Transference of DNZ is much more understandable now, so is hairs.” Munro said the key issue is whether he's had a fair trial. It won't just ‘turn on the hairs' – the judge will focus on whether he was in fact spotted on water taxi. LISTEN ABOVE. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Government's throwing $1.9 billion at Corrections with a pledge to restore law and order. It will add more than 800 extra beds at Waikeria Prison and recruit 685 more frontline Corrections staff. Criminal defence lawyer John Munro says more beds will result in more people in prison. He told Mike Hosking that we need to be careful we don't end up following in the footsteps of the United States. Munro says we still need to get the balance of rehabilitation and recidivism right, so the community is kept safe but people leaving prison don't go back to crime.

WHAT POLICE ARE AND ARE NOT LEGALLY ALLOWED TO DO DURING A HIGH-SPEED CHASE Libby is now joined by Joseph Neuberger, a Criminal Defence Lawyer with Neuberger and Partners LLP. Why were police on that dangerous and ultimately deadly high- speed chase on the 401 that killed an infant and his grandparents as well as the suspect? It was apparently the result of an armed robbery. An investigation is underway into this horrific tragedy. What are police legally and not legally allowed to do during a high-speed chase? TWO KEY BY-ELECTIONS ARE FAST APPROACHING: WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW Libby is now joined by Bob Richardson, Senior Council to National Public Relations, and John Mykytyshyn, Conservative Activist, Political Consultant, and President of Bradgate Research Group. Two provincial bi-elections are taking place tomorrow in two ridings currently held by PC's - Lambton-Kent-Middlesex, which was the riding of Ford government Minister Monte McNaughton, and Milton, which was Parm Gill's riding before he resigned.
A criminal defence lawyer is hesitant to endorse the incoming Three Strikes legislation. The Government is looking to re-establish the laws which will see mandatory prison sentences for violent and sexual criminals committing a third offence. It will only apply to sentences above 24 months and give judges more discretion. Lawyer John Munro told Mike Hosking that overall, the evidence is conflicting. He says it hasn't been enforced here long enough for studies to show whether it works, so we're relying on overseas evidence. Munro says some of the studies out of California say it increases crime.

The number of gang-affiliated offenders sentenced to home detention has increased by nearly 60 per cent in six years, according to Department of Corrections data. The National Party says the rise is concerning from a “public safety” perspective and believes its policy of making gang membership an aggravating factor at sentencing will make it more likely they will spend time in prison, rather than home detention. Labour says National's policy “just tinkers with the status quo”, and the party is “dangerously straying into the territory of disregarding” constitutional arrangements. Answers to Written Parliamentary Questions from National's Justice spokesperson Paul Goldsmith regarding the number of people who were sentenced to home detention and were identified to be gang-affiliated each financial year since 2017/18 reveal a 59 per cent increase, with 623 people with gang affiliations being sentenced to home detention in the 2022/23 financial year. The figures, provided to the Herald, do not include a breakdown of what offences each person was sentenced for. Home detention can only be granted by a judge and is used as an alternative to imprisonment. It is intended for offenders who would receive a jail term of two years or less. Corrections said home detention was “both a punitive and rehabilitation sentence”. “It requires an offender to remain at a suitable and approved residence at all times and be monitored 24 hours a day, seven days a week. “Offenders on home detention must also complete programmes designed to address the causes of their offending.” Between 2017 to 2022 the number of people being sentenced to home detention overall decreased by 15 per cent, according to Ministry of Justice figures. The increase in gang affiliates being sentenced to home detention coincides with a 61 per cent increase in the gang population in New Zealand since 2017. National Party's justice spokesman Paul Goldsmith. Photo / Mark Mitchell. Goldsmith told the Herald the increase in gang-affiliated people being sentenced to home detention was “concerning”. He also cited a 33 per cent increase in violent crime during the same period. “Ultimately our concern is for public safety and as we've seen in recent cases home detention doesn't necessarily mean being at home all the time, it can, well, mean going off to work, and for certain people that may well be appropriate ... there are certain circumstances, particularly for non-violent crimes or for ones that don't involve serious violence that may make sense, but what we worry about is when it extends to those more serious crimes and gang activity. “Our particular concern around gang activity is for the overwhelmingly negative impact that they have on our communities.” He believed National's policy of making gang membership an aggravating factor at sentencing, and limiting judges' ability to reduce sentences, with a maximum discount of 40 per cent, would reduce the likelihood that sentences were downgraded from imprisonment to home detention for gang members. “There will be circumstances where [home detention] is appropriate but what I would point to is the significant increase in violent crime over the same period, a significant increase in gang membership over the same period, and at the same time we're seeing more gang members on home detention and all those things don't add up to me.” Justice Minister Ginny Andersen. Photo / Mark Mitchell In response, Justice Minister Ginny Andersen said National's policy on making gang membership automatically an aggravating factor at sentencing “just tinkers with the status quo”. “Which as it stands means being in a gang or an organised crime group is already an aggravated factor at sentencing.” She cited the sentencing of Mongrel Mob president Turanganui John Ormsby-Turner in March for murder as being an example of connections to organised crime being considered as an aggravating factor. “Their other policy around limiting judges' ability to reduce sentences has been panned by experts as unworkable and was clearly poorly thought out,” she said. “If National are serious about gangs, they should consider putting up some evidence-based policies that actually work, such as the Government's gang legislation brought in this year, which has already been used twice by police to crack down on gangs when they are in conflict.” Andersen, who is also Police Minister, said statistics showed the number of people who had been sentenced to home detention had remained “relatively stable” since 2013. “The decision to sentence someone to home detention is one made by a judge, not the Government. National are dangerously straying into the territory of disregarding this part of our constitutional arrangements.” The figures come after a string of high-profile cases where gang members or affiliates were sentenced to home detention. Last month, 17-year-old Tana Ormsby-Turner, a Mongrel Mob prospect involved in a gang-related murder, was sentenced to 12 months of home detention after Justice Francis Cooke began with a starting point of seven years' imprisonment and applied around 70 per cent in discounts. In June, Kane Ronaki, the nephew of the Mongols MC gang's vice president, was sentenced to home detention after he was found guilty following the Operation Silk trial of two firearms charges - including one loaded shotgun - and one charge of possessing explosives - the five shotgun shells in the shotgun. In October last year, William Nelson-Bell, a Killer Beez gang member who took part in four South Auckland drive-by shootings on his 18th birthday, was sentenced to a year of home detention. In June last year, police launched Operation Cobalt - a nationwide crackdown on gangs - following a spike in intimidating behaviour and violence by gangs, particularly the drive-by shootings between the Killer Beez and Tribesmen in Auckland in the first half of 2022. Operation Cobalt included a specialist ring-fenced team of 40 staff in Auckland. Last week, National's police spokesperson Mark Mitchell received a barrage of criticism from Andersen for claiming that half of 41,000 charges laid through Operation Cobalt were “minor offences”, despite those charges potentially including burglary, theft, drink-driving and breaches of bail. Mitchell told the Herald he did not think offences including burglary were minor, but said he could only work with the data the Government supplied which only referenced offence categories and not a breakdown by charge. Andersen said it was “frankly appalling” to undermine the efforts of police officers working to limit the harmful reach of gangs. “I want Mark to step up and explain to the police frontline why he has a problem with them arresting gang members for burglary and theft. “And I want him to explain why he doesn't think that reckless driving that endangers lives is more than ‘minor'.” Sam Sherwood is a Christchurch-based reporter who covers crime. He is a senior journalist who joined the Herald in 2022, and has worked as a journalist for 10 years.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

After spending two years in custody awaiting trial, a man has been found not guilty by a jury in less than an hour. Barney Mackie of Kaipara was charged with one count of rape and one of administering ecstasy following an alleged incident in Paparoa in 2021. Criminal Defence Lawyer Steve Cullen says he doubts he is entitled to compensation. "He would have had multiple bail hearings, but the only time I've ever come across people staying in custody for that length or period of time is when they're chosen to, because they know they're facing a significant jail term."

Ryan Lindley has been suspended from Twitter! I Repeat, our friend and co-host Ryan Lindley has been suspended from Twitter. And he says he deserved it. Americans celebrated the freest day of the year, July 4th, by shooting each other in 7 mass shootings spread across the US. The worst of which happened in Highpark Ill and the videos are staggering. While Americans shoot each other, Canadians are trying to forget the Convoy but can't get away from it. I swear Dean had a convoy-free show planned until CTV reported former Sask Premier Brad Wall Goodman helped Organize and advise insurrectionists. Pat King lied about his involvement and Tamara Lich's Bail Breach hearing is today we ask Criminal Defence Lawyer, Rob Kivlichan if this is criminality or government incompetence. #CorinnaKopf makes `14 million a year on Only Fans and financial educator @Scottrades knows exactly how to hide it. He also wants to talk about Crytpo and so does Dean because no one understands it AND people are losing their SHIRTS. Also, are we in a recession and wtf is a bear market, bro?

Our guests weigh in on the news and on Canada's record on harm reduction strategies. ---- WOMEN
Melbourne criminal defence lawyer Bernie Balmer has represented some of Victoria's most notorious identities like gangland matriarch Judy Moran, Mick Gatto and Mark “Chopper Read”, AFL and NRL players, past and present, and people you've probably never heard of, like the woman who stabbed to death the child she gave birth to, on an access visit, with the adoptive parents nearby. He and his team are also known for representing some of the most vulnerable people, including children, who enter the court system each day. Bernie is quite literally, a fighter - he was a boxer and has been involved in the sport, in and out of the ring, since 1966. Bernie, a country boy, even has an Australian University Heavyweight title. He boxed, nightclub-bounced and grafted his way through a law degree at Melbourne University. On March 27, 1986 Bernie, then a young solicitor, was, fatefully, at the site of the Russell Street bombing just as the bomb detonated. He tended to young police constable Angela Taylor, who was fatally injured by the blast, dying in hospital weeks later. Bernie carried Angela away from the burning wreckage, comforting her until medical help arrived. The sights, sounds and smells that day have stayed with Bernie all these years - a dropped plate in a kitchen or the sound of a car backfiring will take him right back to the trauma. Bernie and his law firm Balmer and Associates ( his lawyer daughter Anna works in the family business too), are known for their sense of social justice and he's one of the highest profile, and respected lawyers in Victoria. He's the man you'd want to call if you find yourself in need of a lawyer. CREDITS: Host: Meshel Laurie. You can find her on Instagram here. Co-Host: Emily Webb.

Marie joins us from Toronto. Marie is inarguably one of the country's most public and most sought after criminal defence lawyers. She was born of Middle Eastern parents and grew up in Toronto within a tight knit family. Being a serious and studious girl from the get-go, she decided early in life that fighting for the underdog was what she wanted to do. Her deep affection for her uncle brought her to spend much time in NYC as a young adult. It was a world in full contrast to her own life in Toronto and her own cultural upbringing – but it was a world that felt comfortable for her just the same. Laser-focused and with sharp instincts, she also learned to navigate the world with an open mind through her uncle Sami's mentorship. We discuss the perennial battle between objectivity and subjectivity in human-made systems. We hear about her thoughts on toughness, boredom, passions, the dangers of compartmentalizing, therapy, winning, losing and a little about artistic endeavours. And, home-made pasta.
