I was arrested a few years ago and spent approx. four months in jail for a crime I didn't commit. My accuserr just happened to be a retired nurse,handy-capedd women who also used to be a former ordained minister, and me well lets just say I have a past history with the police. Anyways when the police came to me residence to ask me some questions I really didn't have much to say to them due to there attitude and domineerr, at this point they brought me to the police station for further questioning, but once again due to there deminer and not having a lawyer present I refused to give a statment. I was then held for the night awaiting a bail hearing.The following day I was denied bail due to the crowns performance and lack of surety. after spending aprox. four months in jail I appeared in court , my accuser did not show up submitting a letter saying she was unable to attended due to medical reasons. The crown said if I were willing to plead guilty to the one charge I would get the other dropped and time served. Me being inicent I refused to due so. My lawyer managed to get me out on bail at this point awaiting a new trial date for the outstanding charge. during my time out I had come across some physical evedence that would have put my acuser in jail. a couple of months went buy and I couldnt wait for my trial, I had physical evedence that wouldf have put my accuser in jail for lying to the police. To my suprise I showed up for trial, only to have my charges withdrawn, gee I wonder why, my EGO and my big mouth basically. I was livid, not only did I spend four months in jail ,I encured a beating to the point of not being able to walk for two weeks. I also lost my apartment and all of my material posheshion, as well incured many finical burdens. To top that all of when I was released from jail apparently there was a rumer going around that I was in jail on a rape charge. and if thats not bad enough aprox three months after getting out of jail I was admited to the hospitial for a so called drug overdose (ya right one of the last things I destinctly rember is someone cooming up from behinfd me and raming a seringe in my arm) but aparently the docters are telluing me I was sucidal, ya right, whatever.I went to the police on severial ocashions regarding physical evedence proving my acuser lied to the the police, all they kept on telling me is "nothing theycan do it's a civail matter" I also told them about on my vershion on how I ended up in the hospitial and that time the treated me like some sort of mental patient, not really giving a **** about anything I had to say. seriously what kind of policeing is this, I'm litterally disgusted and appaled. Also inregard to these matters I have contacted the chief of police but because the police kept playing games with me misinforming me and not doing anything know neither will the chief of police because My written letter was submited after the six months. section 59(4) the matter was not submitted withen six months. I have also contacted the Ontario Comishion on Policice services they have now also closed the file, not doing a god dam thing. I have also contacted severial lawyers only to be told that it is a criminal matter and that the police should be dealing with it or that it would be pointless taking to court due to the women being on a fixed income and that it would also be costly. I have also contacterd Cith Hall and The MP"S office also to be treated like some less than or some third class citizen. I have also stood ourt front of the police station with a sign protesting my false arest in hopes of getting some media attention. I have contacted the local news and media on severial ocashions also only to get the run, unless I do something extream like chain myself toi the front of Cith Hall or the Police station they don't seem to give a ****. after going through severial lawyers I have finally found a lawyer willing to take on the City of Hamilton, and The Hamilton Wentworht Police provided I come up with a retainer of $7,500 and provided I'm within the statute of limatitions. I don't have that kind of money and Quite franklt I think it's outyragious on how I have been treated and how the justice system has treated me. It seems there is descrimaniation and people with money and powere do have influence.
Seriously apart from hurtingsome one or doing something I'm going to regret what can I do, I aslo forgot to mention that aslo due to this issiue I no longer have contact with any of my family members do to there perception and beliefs and quit frankly I'm tired of arguing with them.

SERIOUSLY WHAT CAN I DO ABOUT THIS MATTER ?

As I said in the last post, go to the Crown and try to lay you own charge for obstruction of justice against the woman. You don't say what the "physical evidence" was, but it may not be enough to charge her.

It is not false arrest if Police were acting in good faith. There were enough ground to lay a charge and even you said that the evidence it had not occurred did not come out until long after you went for a bail hearing.

Other than that, you do not have much recourse. You have complained to the Police, they have not pursued it.

You have complained to the Police commission, who have also felt there was nothing to it, since they closed the file. The commission is an independant, non Police committee who are there to ensure the Police are accountable to the people.

Your line "Lets just say I have a past history with the police' pretty much doomed you. had you walked the straight and narrow you wouldn't have been in that mess.



As to what can you do? Nothing. They have the right to hold you in the slammer unless you can make bond. You have the right to get out of the slammer if you make bond. You didn't, they win. And you have (I assume in GB as we have in the US) a right to a speedy trial. Of course the way the court system is backlogged 'speedy trial' could be a year.



So unless you enjoy cooling your heels behind stone walls, move on with your life and forget about 'hurting someone or doing something you'll regret'. isn't that how you've become on an intimate basis with the coppers in the first place?

i theory that if somebody is suicidal or homicidal, he/she ought to be committed against his/her will. call the psychological wellbeing government or the police branch on your community and see in case you will get some path on doing this. in spite of the undeniable fact that, while you're no longer the criminal next of kin contributors, it could't be as much as you, which brings you precise back to the kin. in the event that they gained't act, and you won't be able to, then you definately do face the no longer difficulty-free decision of having out of that project to objective and save your man or woman sanity (and probably scare some experience into her) or staying and taking of project on getting sucked extra into the sickness.

Everyone you encounter is trying to tell you've got nothing, but you're too stupid to take the hint.

I stopped reading about three "sentences" in. No one wants to try and read chicken scratch from an illiterate buffoon. Learn how to write like an adult if you want answers from adults.
