The Ontario Supreme Court has ruled that an Ottawa man can sue the Ottawa Police Service for wrongfully accusing him of killing his wife.
Justice Charles T. Hackland found that there was sufficient evidence of alleged negligence, bad faith and malicious prosecution when police charged bar manager Gilles Leclair with strangling his wife before dumping her in the family pool in 2003.
The murder charge was dropped two years later when a second pathologist found that 52-year-old Bev Leclair likely drowned by accident.
