An Ontario court justice has sent a strong message to criminal thugs all across the province who might find themselves in a scenario where they could help a friend evade justice: Go ahead. You won’t necessarily go to jail. In fact, you might be able to keep your gym membership.
In July, 2023, in the Leslieville area of Toronto, Khalila Mohammed helped a man involved in a fatal shooting of a bystander escape the scene and hide out from authorities. Ms. Mohammed, who was 23 years old at the time, worked as a harm-reduction worker at the supervised-consumption site near where the daytime shooting took place. Karolina Huebner-Makurat, a mother of two who lived in the area, was hit and killed by a stray bullet.
