client acquitted of human trafficking etc.

R. v. G.

Ms. G was charged with human trafficking and a number of other related offences against another woman.  The case was about two simple-minded young women who were struggling financially and formed a friendship over a brief two week period.  There was no question that this was a sad set of circumstances and some bad decisions were made.  However, at the end of the day, Ms. G did not exploit her friend, nor did she persuade, control, direct or influence the complainant to do anything.  Ms. Bristow was faced with significant hurdles with preparing Ms. G as she had a learning disability as well as mental health issues.  However, all that meant for Ms. Bristow was that substantial, time consuming preparation with Ms. G before she testified.  Ms. Bristow put in that time and fought hard for her client, securing an acquittal on all of her charges.
