Awale Hussein v. His Majesty the King (41015)
Manage episode 462849028 series 3403624
After friends spent a night drinking heavily in a basement apartment, Mr. Boucher was fatally stabbed multiple times in a bedroom. No one witnessed the stabbing. Mr. Hussein was charged with second degree murder and tried before a jury. He testified at trial. Defence counsel brought an application to prevent or restrict the Crown from cross-examining Mr. Hussein on his extensive criminal record. The trial judge dismissed the application. In cross-examination of Mr. Hussein, Crown counsel raised his criminal record. The trial judge instructed the jury on the use it could make of Mr. Hussein’s criminal record. The jury convicted Mr. Hussein of second degree murder. The Court of Appeal dismissed an appeal from the conviction.
