Crime Scenerio
In the early morning of December 18, 1999, Samuel G and his friend Curtis were driving home from a Christmas party. While driving Samuel G's car left the road and rolled down an embankment, killing his passenger and seriously injuring himself. The police found evidence that Mr. G and his passenger had been drinking in the car and the blood test sample taken at the hospital after the accident revealed that Mr. G had a blood alcohol content of 143 mgs.The Saanich police received a 911 call from a local citizen who had passed the accident scene. When the constables arrived they were led down the embankment by the lights on the flipped over vehicle. While the police were at the vehicle, the ambulance and fire department arrived, rushing to the car. They immediately tended to the passengers. Upon entering the passenger side of the vehicle, the paramedics determined that Curtis had died from the impact of the crash and the severity of his injuries. A later autopsy report supported this conclusion. At the time of the incident, depending on the severity of the injuries sustained in the accident, the police will determine the grounds for placing the suspect under investigation. Samuel

(Griffiths an!d Verdun-Jones, 1994). Bail HearingA bail hearing is held to determine whether the suspect should be released on bail or held in custody while awaiting his court proceedings (Griffiths and Verdun-Jones, 1994). We have done our best to make this scenario realistic, using references and documents which explain how the system should work. At this time the police officers would wait for the blood sample results, which would provide the necessary evidence to lay charges. If Samuel chooses, he may ask the judge for a pardon to have the criminal record removed. If Samuel may breech any of these restrictions, his parole may be revoked upon discretion of the parole officer. Should Samuel choose to change his decision about the method of trial he would like, he has 14 days to do so (Griffiths and Verdun-Jones, 1994). The Justice of the Peace will determine, based on the laying of information, how the case will be dealt with in our criminal court system. Victoria Police Department (2000) Personal Communication.
