In this episode, Mike discusses the Manitoba Court of Appeal decision R. v. Devos, 2024 MBCA 23 where police made a demand for breath samples following a single vehicle rollover where a 15-year-old passenger was killed. Did the officer have the required reasonable grounds for the breathalyzer demand? And what happens when judges don’t see all of the facts the same way? Can evidence be reasonably subject to different interpretations? And would the officer’s grounds stand up even when some of what the officer relied upon was discounted?
