That was a very entertaining read. Pulling no punches in the conclusion:

> 'In the modern-day vernacular, people often refer to a criminal case “being thrown out”. Obviously, this is little more than a figurative expression. Cases aren’t actually thrown out, in the literal or physical sense. Nevertheless, in the specific circumstances of this case, the Court is inclined to actually take the file and throw it out the window, which is the only way to adequately express my bewilderment with the fact that Mr. Epstein was subjected to an arrest and a fulsome criminal prosecution. Alas, the courtrooms of the Montreal courthouse do not have windows.'


This was a much more entertaining read than the link the OP, in my opinion. I didn't realize official court documents could have such an attitude. The guy that wrote this fuckin hates the complainants and it shows, hahaha


Yeah I was surprised that they wrote an official court document like that, with plenty of sarcasm and snark. I actually wanted to keep reading it all the way to the end.


We've changed the URL to that from https://www.theguardian.com/world/2023/mar/10/giving-the-mid.... Thanks!
