In this episode, Mike discusses the Nova Scotia Court of Appeal decision R. v. Mitchell, 2022 NSCA 77 where a suspect in an intimate partner violence investigation asked a court to stay all 32 charges against him because the police entered his home without a warrant to arrest him. No statement was obtained nor was any evidence found as a result of this entry and arrest. Was the police conduct so egregious that the court granted the request?  Mike also speaks about domestic violence and how times have changed.
