D.J. was recruited to purchase gift cards using stolen credit cards at various retail outlets. As D.J. was leaving a store, the store security noticed suspicious transactions and alerted the police.
One police officer quickly attended and detained D.J. Instead of providing D.J. his rights to counsel, the officer started questioning D.J. in a highly incriminating manner. The officer then arrested D.J. and charged him with Fraud.
After reviewing the officer’s body-worn camera, Jake quickly identified a series of Charter violations and convinced the Crown to withdraw the charge.
