Byron Sonne....

[Colin McGregor]

A court case that I have been following to some degree is the one
against Byron Sonne, an IT security expert who was arrested before the
G20 meeting last year. In late January I spent about a half hour
watching a small part of his preliminary hearing (where the Crown
(government) Prosecutor has to prove to a judge that they have enough
evidence that when they do reach trial they will not be laughed out).
The preliminary hearing is over and here is what happened:

Bottom line, most of the charges against Byron Sonne have been
dropped. Based on what little I saw the only thing that surprises me
is that any of the charges are still in place.
