Summary
Frank Stronach’s sexual assault conviction has been tossed out after a judge declared a mistrial, citing a bizarre twist: the complainant’s lawyer allegedly tried to negotiate a $1 million settlement with Stronach’s team — a move that raised serious questions about fairness. The defense argued the lawyer’s version of events clashed with his client’s courtroom testimony, especially regarding her claimed fear of Stronach. The judge even considered summoning the lawyer to testify — and it’s not just the legal drama: the lawyer has a history of misconduct with the Law Society of Ontario. While this case is now dead, Stronach still faces one conviction out of 12 alleged incidents involving seven women — with sentencing for his earlier indecent assault charge looming in September.
