Pelletier v. Ontario Provincial Police
This 22-day trial pitted Jerry, a young man with a troubled past, against an O.P.P. officer and his five colleagues. Jerry was riding his bike at night without lights or reflectors, on the wrong side of the street, while wearing dark clothes and no helmet. He was struck by a police cruiser making a right turn at an intersection. The police claimed the collision occurred away from the intersection; Jerry’s brief memory was that he was in the cross-walk.
