The accused, charged with first degree murder in the death of a police officer, brought an application for disclosure or third party production of police training materials and disciplinary records of a key Crown police witness.
The court dismissed the application for the training materials, finding them irrelevant to the issues at trial.
However, the court ordered the production of the disciplinary records, finding that they were relevant to the credibility and reliability of the officer, who was a pivotal witness for the Crown.
