A Toronto Lawyer's Fraud Trial, Three Years After Millions Went Missing From a Trust Account
A Toronto lawyer who co-founded a law firm with his wife is on trial on a charge of fraud stemming from the police investigation into the firm's collapse, CBC reports. The firm went under three years ago after millions of dollars of client money was discovered missing from its trust account. Worth keeping straight: the fraud charge is an allegation, not a finding, and the trial is where the police investigation's case now has to hold up.
