Dear Hillary McCormack:
In the matter of the Summons to Richard Warman who was charged with one criminal offense of defamatory libel, contrary to Section 300 of the Criminal Code of Canada and two offenses of false accusations contrary to Section 346 (1.1) (b) of the Criminal Code of Canada please be advised that I have just returned from the Ottawa Courthouse, Courtroom 5, where the three charges (No. 202, 203 & 204) against Richard Warman were withdrawn at Dallas Mack’s request on behalf of the Crown Attorney’s Office. Dallas entered Courtroom 5 at 8:30 AM. He walked by where I was sitting in the front row and requested Justice of the Peace, Darrell Bartrah to deal with matters 202, 203 and 204 immediately. By the way, Richard Warman was not present even though the Criminal Code of Canada requires that the accused be present on any indictable offences.
Dallas told the court that the Crown Attorney’s Office was withdrawing these three charges. I was standing up at the bar and I said: ‘Your Honour I would like to say a few words for the court record.’
Justice of the Peace, Darrel Bartrah answered: ‘No.’ I asked a second time: ‘Could I ask why the charges were dropped and what recourse do I have, can I prosecute these charges myself.’ Justice of the Peace, Darrel Bartrah answered again: ‘No, the Crown has withdrawn the charges.’
I only wanted to get a few sentences on the court record. It would have taken only 45 seconds of the court time to say these sentences and yet I was denied an opportunity to have the following sentences on the court record.
“Your Honour, I have a few words that I want to go on the court record. I have received no reasons why the Crown Attorney’s Office is withdrawing these three charges. On July 5th, 2002, the Honourable Justice Lalonde issued a Mandamus Order wherein he declared that there was sufficient evidence to prosecute Richard Warman on the three indictable charges. I have reasonable grounds to believe that the Chief Crown Attorney is withdrawing these three charges for an ulterior motive - to prevent the accused, a high profile lawyer, working as an Investigator with the Canadian Human Rights Commission from facing trial.
I also want the record to show that Richard Warman did not appear (a) for his first appearance on October 18th, 2002 (b) for his second appearance on November 18th, 2002 nor (c) was he photographed and fingerprinted by the Forensic Department of the Ottawa Police as required by the Criminal Code of Canada.
What recourse do I have now for (a) myself who laid two of the criminal charges against Richard Warman and (b) as Agent for Dave Lindsay, the other informant who laid the third criminal charge against Richard Warman?”
Dallas Mack turned around and started walking out of the courtroom. I followed him to the door and was about to ask him a question as I was stepping outside the courtroom when a bailiff (Nancy) put an envelope in my hand. I was being served the million dollar civil ‘Statement of Claim’ from Richard Warman. Details at the Richard Warman Cyberclassroom: www.cyberclass.net/million$claim.htm How did the Bailiff, (Nancy) know that I would be in Courtroom 5 at 8:30 AM on Monday, November 18th, 2002? I knew that she had been trying to serve me the ‘Statement of Claim’ as she had telephoned me the week before. I had left her a message that I would be in Ottawa the week of November 18th, 2002 BUT I did not tell her that I’d be in Courtroom 5 at 8:30 AM on November 18th, 2002. (Just a coincidence, nothin’ to worry about.)
I explained to Dallas Mack that I had just returned to Ottawa at 3:00AM on Monday, November 18th, 2002 after being in Toronto during the week on November 11th to the 18th, 2002. I had made a determined effort to drive through a snowstorm to be present at Richard Warman’s second appearance on the three criminal charges.
When I arrived at my home at 3:00 AM on Monday, November 18th, 2002, I did find a message from Lise Boisvert, from the Crown Attorney’s Office requesting me to call her so that she could arrange to fax me a document.
By 8:30AM on Monday morning I still had no idea of why you were withdrawing these three criminal charges against Richard Warman as I had received no documentation from the Crown Attorney’s Office at that time. The only advice that Dallas Mack gave me was a shoulder shrug and (a) the name of the Justice of the Peace and (b) the suggestion that I go to the Crown Attorney’s Office on the 3rd Floor at 161 Elgin St., Ottawa, Ontario and request Lise Boisvert to give me a copy of the letter authored by Hillary McCormack on November 8th, 2002 so that I could read the reasons why the charges were withdrawn.
At 8:40 AM I presented myself at the Crown Attorney’s Office and asked for Lise Boisvert. She passed a copy of your letter dated November 8th, 2002. I expressed my disgust to Lise Boisvert about the unjust way that I had just been treated by ‘our court system’ and about how the perception is that Richard Warman has been not been treated like other accused persons with indictable offences. I pointed out to her that the outward appearance is that Richard Warman is and had been receiving ‘special’ treatment by the whole ‘court system’ - the Chief Crown Attorney’s Office, the Ottawa Police and Justice of the Peace, Darrel Bartrah.
I am still waiting for a response from my communication dated October 21st, 2002 and October 28th, 2002.
You can mail your response to the above address or telephone me and arrange for me to meet with you to discuss the very important matters raised in this communication.
Sincerely,
Thomas-Joseph: Kennedy
