Rob Ford's Toronto

[dforthandbview]

I'm guessing Ford's defense will be that Scott MacIntyre is a drug addict and he can't be trusted to tell the truth.

Hey, wait a minute...

Jamie Strashin: Ford's lawyer Dennis Morris says he has seen statement but wants to talk to Mayor before commenting.

Jamie Strashin: BREAKING: Scott Mcyintyre...mayor's sister's ex...has filed statement of claim against Mayor alleging Ford behind his jailhouse assault.

Aren't statements of claim the starting point for civil suits?

Morris says he'll come talk to reporters, but then Ford's driver tells him to stay put.

Ford's driver tells security guard that media is disrupting council, asks him to tell press to "fuck off"

Nice to see the Mayor's taxpayer-funded driver urging city security to interfere with the press. Because accountability.

UT is seriously hysterical today.

I think we're all giddy with the thought of Justice lifting her blindfold to take a closer look.

And I'm likin' it, on both counts!

I knew the jailhouse assault on MacIntyre would come back to haunt the Fords at some point. Honestly, did anyone doubt for a single, solitary second that Slob and Thug had something to do with it?

Ford just told Cho that we are not cutting any fire trucks, Interesting, I signed a petition earlier this week, finally Moeser is addressing Ford. Ford didn't know about the cuts, unbelievable.

The Mayor just shouted "MORE THAN ENOUGH!" on the floor of council. Didn't finish the sentence the way he did last time... #TOpoli

I can't believe this cretinous turd is still in office. I wouldn't scrape him off the bottom of my shoe.

Now, given the judge in the case saying MacIntyre was obviously beaten up because of Ford connections plus this civil suit lead to any further criminal investigations or has that ship sailed?
