IF the woman who gave Ketamine (or whatever) to Matthew Perry or the woman who supplied John Belushi with coke can be convicted of a criminal action....why not dealers and smugglers ??

I fully agree with you, but police and prosecutors would have to have solid evidence regarding the supply chain. Not an impossible task, but quite difficult I wager.

Brihard - I'm curious as to your thoughts on the crown asking to keep certain infornation private in this case?
(I'm tempted to jump to an opinion, but it would probably be an ignorant one. You are far more competent in these matters than I am)
I don’t know anymore than you or anyone else here on the specific case… About the most I’d feel comfortable saying is that crown won’t voluntarily invite the ugly hell of disclosure and litigation in a S.38 case unless they really have to. It can delay things by a couple of years and just means a lot more work and expense for everyone.
About all we can reasonably infer is that if S.38’s in play, that means police have probably, grudgingly, had to receive and grapple with information that doesn’t come from within conventional policing and that consequently must be protected. I don’t think that’s ever desired; info that can’t be disclosed in court is the exact opposite of what police and prosecuting crown hope for.
As for whose info and where it comes from? Maybe in a while we’ll see the court allow redacted summaries of the info that’s being
Suppressed. S.38 doesn’t have to be all or nothing- the black boxes can have words on top of it to give the gist of what’s protected.
I’m definitely interested in how it all plays out.
