The Crown appealed the acquittal of Christine Decaire on a mischief charge related to the Freedom Convoy.
The Crown argued the trial judge erred in applying principal and party liability and inferential reasoning from circumstantial evidence.
The Superior Court dismissed the appeal, finding no error in the trial judge's conclusion that there was insufficient evidence to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that the respondent engaged in overt acts of mischief or formed a common intention to block streets, distinguishing her conduct from other protest-related cases.
