B & B on Bail
Barbara Dowker and Brendan Thompson, two of the lawyers at Gunn Law Group, guide you through the Canadian bail system. What must the Courts consider when deciding whether to release someone? What happens when a person reoffends when already on release? Is our bail system broken or are there sufficient protections in place to ensure the safety of the public, respect for the presumption of innocence and confidence in the administration of justice? Barbara and Brendan discuss these, and other questions, in this episode of Legal Eyes.
