How many of those bar fights result in the 'victim' making a complaint and having witnesses come forward to support his claims?
Was the prosecutor supposed to tell the plantiff to eff off because Ferland is a Flames prospect and other guys get into bar fights.
He was presented a case where the claim was that a guy got sucker punched and had physical harm done to him and had witnesses to back it up. That is a crime in Canada.
I know people are mad that a Flames prospect got charged in this but it seems odd to direct your anger towards the prosecutor and not the guy who brought the complaint or the guy who threw the punch at the plantiff.
