Ep 1 - "Hitting The Reset Button"
- We're looking at the appeal of R. v. Barton from the Alberta Court of Appeal, dealing with the trial of Bradley Barton for the death of Cindy Gladue. What happens when the criminal trial requirement of proof beyond a reasonable doubt risks providing cover for allowing stereotypes and biases into the criminal justice system? How does the right of an accused to a fair trial, where his very liberty is at stake, stand beside the need to eliminate myths about women, sex and consent? How do we push the reset button in criminal matters relating to sexual assault while also preserving our belief that only those we are certain are guilty should be punished? These are just some of the questions we'll be exploring on this episode of the General Appeal Podcast.
