Today Tamar Bitton's client was acquitted after trial of sexual assault, uttering threats, and obstructing justice. Good work, Tamar!

Why are so many people silent? What are you scared of? Scared to speak out against the murder of innocent civilians? HAMAS IS A TERRORIST ORGANIZATION. If you are not outraged, you do not care about the massacre of innocent people. #Israel #Israel_under_attack #IsraelWar

If you attend this rally, you support a terrorist organization. You support the torture, rape, and brutal murder of innocent civilians. Also, you are a disgusting human being. Anyone I know who goes, you are dead to me.

Yes. Very few people understand this. Wake up people. As most people know, I'm a criminal defence lawyer with a very busy practice. Being at work today is very difficult. However, I will always fight for my clients because they need me. I will never abandon them.

I just got a call from one of my clients in custody. He didn't call to ask about his case. He read the news. He cared. He asked what he could do. Demonstrating more support than some of my own colleagues. Your silence hurts. Rest assured, I will never forget your silence.

In court in person today. A court officer, who I've known for years, gave me a huge hug and told me he was concerned about what was going on in #Israel and told me about the measures his team was taking to ensure #Jews in Toronto feel safe. It meant a lot. #AmIsraelChai 🇮🇱

3 weeks later and I'm still hearing people say "yeah, but..." to the terrorist attack on Oct 7. Why is it so hard to condemn what Hamas did? What's wrong with people? Seriously? There is no justification. Enough with the deflection.

It's Oct 7th. 1 year since Hamas brutally murdered, raped, and kidnapped our people. The last year has given me true insight into those around me. For that, I am grateful. Most importantly, the last year has made me even MORE proud to be a Jew and proud supporter of Israel. 🇮🇱🇮🇱

Congrats to Justice Bellows on her appointment! Although I am sad to lose her as Crown counsel on many cases we have together, I am honored to call Justice Bellows a colleague and friend. Parry Sound is very lucky. She will be wonderful! canada.ca/en/department-…

Great start to the new year! #notguilty My client was finally able to go home after years in custody. While my heart goes out to the victims in this case, it was the correct verdict. barrietoday.com/court/emotiona…

Congrats to Justice Rob Tomovski!!!! I first met Justice Tomovski when I was his 1L summer student. I feel privileged to have had him as my friend and mentor for over a decade now!! Sad day for the defence bar, but what a gift to the justice system!!!
