Nicole O'Byrne talks to Martin Friedland about his book, Canadian Criminal Law in Ten Cases. Canadian Criminal Law in Ten Cases explores the development of criminal justice in Canada through an in-depth examination of ten significant criminal cases. Martin L. Friedland draws on cases that went to the Supreme Court of Canada or the Privy Council, including well-known cases such as those of Louis Riel, Steven Truscott, Henry Morgentaler, and Jamie Gladue. The book addresses such issues as wrongful convictions, the enforcement of morality, Indigenous experiences with criminal law, bail and trial delay, and the impact of the 1982 Charter of Rights on the criminal justice system. Friedland describes in a masterful way the factual background of each case and the political, social, and economic conditions of the time. Each character – the accused, judges, and counsel – is described in detail, as are the relevant laws and procedures. Friedland includes recommendations on how the criminal justice system can be improved, such as by creating a new federal commission devoted solely to criminal justice and by the enactment by Parliament of enhanced codes of evidence and criminal law and procedure. Canadian Criminal Law in Ten Cases is an indispensable guide to understanding the criminal justice system for lawyers, students, and anyone interested in criminal law and the administration of criminal justice. Martin L. Friedland is a university professor of law emeritus at the University of Toronto.

June 9, 1959. Clinton, Ontario. After failing to return home, 12-year old Lynne Harper is reported missing and her body is discovered in a woodlot two days later. She has been sexually assaulted and strangled to death with her own blouse and suspicion turns towards her 14-year old classmate, Steven Truscott, who claims that he gave Lynne a ride to the highway on his bicycle and saw her climb into a passing car. Steven is soon charged, convicted and sentenced to death for Lynne's murder, but his sentence is commuted to life imprisonment and he is paroled in 1969. Decades later, Steven files a successful appeal to have his conviction overturned, but there is still a lot of debate about who was actually responsible for Lynne Harper's murder. Last week, we released Part One of our special eight-year anniversary episode of “The Trail Went Cold” about one of the most controversial murder cases in the history of Canada. This week, in Part Two, we will share the rest of the story before breaking down and analyzing all the details about the crime.

On June 9th, 1959 a 12-year-old-girl would disappear in Clinton, Ontario, about 80 kilometres northwest of London, Ontario from nearby the Royal Canadian Air Force Base. Seemingly the last person to see her alive would be a young man who was also a classmate of hers at The Air Vice Marshal Hugh Campbell School. The two had gone for a ride oh his bicycle. When the young girl did not return home, the young boy would in fact become a suspect in her disappearance. On June 11th, two days after she had gone missing, tragically her body would be found and on June 12th, the young man would be arrested and charged with first-degree murder. Police felt that this was an opened and closed case. Was the easy answer the right one in this case or were there going to be questions in this case that still exist today, 63 years later?Intro Music: Provided by Gallagher Music Gallagher on Spotify Gallagher on Apple Music Gallagher's Latest Original Music Sources:National Post - Who Killed Lynne Harper?

We begin with our weekly conversation with Mayor Jyoti Gondek. We get the Mayor's thoughts on the impact the new Federal Budget will have on the City of Calgary and, we hear details of the Mayor's latest honour: Being named the ‘Parade Marshall' for the official kick-off of the Calgary Expo later this month. Next, we head stateside for an update on the issues making headlines in the U.S. Jackson Proskow, Global News Washington Bureau Chief, brings us the latest on the U.S. response to the war in Ukraine and details on rising COVID-19 cases in the country. It's a gripping true story about a fight to free an innocent man convicted of murder. We speak to Calgary-based Director Wendy Hill-Tout about her new film “Marlene” which chronicles the story of Steven Truscott. Finally, we speak with Canadian music icon Alan Doyle of “Great Big Sea” about his latest project – a ‘musical' called “Tell Tale Harbour”. Alan tells us about his inspiration behind the musical and how you can win a chance to see it live in PEI.   See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

We don't get a lot of movie premieres here in Guelph, so when one happens it's kind of a big deal. Coming to the Bookshelf Cinema this Friday is Marlene, the story of self-selecting Guelphites Marlene Truscott and her husband Steven Truscott, whose life story involves one of the worst miscarriages of justice in Canadian history. Now it's a movie, and according to its director, a romance at that. Steven Truscott was the youngest person ever to be sentenced to death in Canada, and it was for the 1959 rape and murder of 12-year-old Lynne Harper in Clinton, Ontario. Truscott himself was just 14 at the time, and though he was later remanded to life in prison, he always maintained his innocence. Truscott was paroled in 1969, and was finally acquitted by the Court of Appeal in 2007, 48 years after his conviction. Throughout much of Truscott's nearly 50-year journey from condemnation to exoneration, Marlene was by his side though they didn't meet until years after his conviction. Marlene ended up becoming Steven's most passionate and vocal advocate, and they got married and had a family together after he was paroled. This was a story ready made for the movies, an innocent man endures a terrible fate only to find great love in his darkest time. It was a story Wendy Hill-Tout wanted to tell. Hill-Tout joins us on this week's podcast to talk about the making of Marlene, how she got interested in the story, and why she decided to make Marlene Truscott the point of view for telling it. We also talk about the the political and social issues around Steve Truscott's experience, like how young Truscott was a victim of the “tough on crime” ethos, how the media played a crucial role in promoting his case, and the role sentencing a 14-year-old to hang played in ending capital punishment in Canada. So let's talk about telling Marlene's story on this week's Guelph Politicast! Marlene premieres Friday night at the Bookshelf Cinema with star Kristen Booth and Ryan Truscott in attendance for a post-screening Q&A. Marlene will then screen nightly at the Bookshelf from April 8 to 14. You can learn more about the work of Wendy Hill-Tout by visiting the website for her production company, Voice Pictures. The host for the Guelph Politicast is Podbean. Find more episodes of the Politicast here, or download them on your favourite podcast app at Apple, Stitcher, Google, TuneIn and Spotify . Also, when you subscribe to the Guelph Politicast channel and you will also get an episode of Open Sources Guelph every Monday, and an episode of End Credits every Friday.

"Ugh it's the 50's"You'll be hearing us say that a lot in this episode as we get increasingly more frustrated with the way this case was conducted. This week we are talking about the case of Steven Truscott & Lynne Harper. In 1959, 14-year-old Steven Truscott was charged with the sexual assault and murder of 12-year-old Lynne Harper in Ontario, Canada. This case continues on until new evidence is brought to light in 2007, which is where Nicole comes in and educates us on the science of Forensic Entomology. If you're not one for bugs, this episode might get a little yucky, but it is interesting to learn what those creepy crawlers can tell us about the death of an individual. This episode is one you are not going to want to miss!Listener's discretion advised as there are discussions of child death and sexual assault. Interested in learning more about when WTF releases new episodes, contests, and more? Make sure to give us a follow on:Facebook and Instagram @WhattheForensics For more details about the hosts, episode details, sources, and images related to each episode, check out our website at https://www.whattheforensics.ca/

Centred around the cataclysmic 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami Carried Away on the Crest of a Wave illustrates how world events link us all together. From two brothers in Malaysia trying to save their house from sinking, a Canadian radio-show host angered by disaster-relief efforts, a grieving Japanese father, to a lonely woman in Utah baking a pie, the play explores humanity in times of disaster. Winner of the 2015 Governor General's Literary Award for Drama and directed by Siminovitch Prize laureate Kim Collier, carried away on the crest of a wave shows that despite our differences, we are all connected through serendipity, loss and love. The stellar cast includes John Ng from CBC TV's Kim's Convenience, Zaib Shaikh, star of CBC TV's Little Mosque on the Prairie, Adrienne Wong, a frequent director at the GCTC, Kayvon Khoshkam from NAC's productions of Twelfth Night and The December Man (L'homme de décembre) and Jenny Young from the NAC's productions of Innocence Lost: A Play about Steven Truscott and The Penelopiad.
