A man was charged with showing his genitals to a person under 16 years old, which is contrary to Section 173 (2) of the Criminal Code. It is an offence included in the category of indecency.
This client did not admit committing the actions and therefore hired lawyer Luc Simard to defend him on this sexual charge.
Criminal lawyer Luc Simard gathered certain documents and other photographic evidence supporting his client’s defence. He set a date for trial in order to present this defence.
On the day of the trial, he convinced the Prosecutor that the client’s explanations were truthful, and the Prosecutor told the Judge he had no further evidence to submit. Therefore, the client was acquitted.
Not all Luc Simard’s clients are acquitted. See notice.
