The applicant, charged with accessory after the fact to murder, applied for judicial interim release.
The charges arose from an execution-style shooting in downtown Toronto where the applicant allegedly acted as the getaway driver.
The Crown was seeking certiorari to reinstate a first-degree murder charge.
The court denied bail, finding that while the primary and secondary grounds might be manageable with a strict supervision plan, detention was necessary under the tertiary ground to maintain public confidence in the administration of justice given the gravity and circumstances of the offence.
