Lock them up!

This is the best summary I could come up with:

The young public servant thrust into the spotlight when she agreed to become the lead plaintiff in a multi-million-dollar proposed class action against Freedom Convoy organizers is testifying in the criminal trial of two of them: Tamara Lich and Chris Barber.

Li is one of the local witnesses called by Crown lawyers, along with business owners and other residents, to illustrate the scope, nature and consequences of the protests and “rebut” any suggestion it was peaceful.

Barber faces an additional charge of counselling others to disobey the Feb. 7 court order that banned loud honking in Ottawa’s downtown core.

Li said she spoke with her lawyer for “not more than five to ten minutes” in the courthouse before leaving, while Greenspon wanted to know whether she had spoken about her testimony with her legal counsel in her civil case, which would have violated directions of the court.

Li’s cross-examination by Greenspon and Magas continued with the two trying to poke holes in her credibility by comparing what she had told the court and what she said in her testimony at the Public Order Emergency Commission (POEC) one year ago.

Paul Jorgenson, who testified at the end of Monday as the likely final resident to be called as a witness, said during the protest he lived in a highrise building at the corner of Kent Street and Laurier Avenue West.
