Pat King, one of the organizers of the “freedom convoy”, which paralyzed downtown Ottawa for three weeks earlier this year, has been released on bail.
The decision was released Monday morning in an Ottawa courtroom.
Pat King appeared last week after his hearing was suddenly interrupted in April when his lawyer’s computer appeared to have been hacked.
The day after that April hearing, the Crown announced that it was bringing new charges against him: three counts of perjury and three counts of obstructing justice.
These latest charges are in addition to 10 counts related to Pat King’s involvement in the Ottawa protest last winter. He was already charged with, among other things, mischief, intimidation, obstructing police work and disobeying a court order.
