Mississauga rapper Avalanche the Architect’s treatment by the justice system exposes lack of accountability

Avalanche the Architect

Crown attorneys are a pillar of the justice system, yet they work with a startling lack of oversight.

Mississauga rapper Avalanche the Architect says the Crown involved in his 2014 trial for uttering threats in connection to his music lost a key piece of evidence that could have swung the ruling in his favour. 

The provincial government does not track complaints against Crown attorneys, despite repeated recommendations from the auditor general and professional bodies to do so.
