Len Lumb, C: [at Toronto, wa !town this week examine the accused with the purpose of deciding, on the man‘s sobriety. The accused man, had not asked for a doctor, nor did the police or the doctor explain specifically to the accused the purpose for which the doctor was called. Mr.Kester held t,hat! because the consent of the accused had not been given, the evidence of the medical man was not adamissable. In support of this contention, Mr. Kester quoted from The English Journal of Crimâ€" inal Law in which it was stated:â€""It is a wellâ€"esâ€" tablished principle of English law that an indiâ€" vidual charged with a criminal offence cannot lawâ€" fully be examined by another person by methods involving personal contact with the suspect, unless permission be given for such an examination. It is presumably also unlawful to request a suspectl to perform certain acts with the object of secur-l ing evidence, unless the suspect is aware of this object." Judgments in some English cases Werel referred to in support of this theory. This ingenious defence did not secure the acquitâ€" tal of Mr. Kester‘s client but it did bring very illu-1 minating reply from both Crown Attorney Caldâ€" bick and Magistrate Atkinson. Both of them pointed out that one of the constables had told the accused that a doctor was being called, and the constable said that the man under arrest had reâ€" plied, "O.K." The accused had miade no objection to the examination and had been coâ€"operative so far as his condition seemed to permit. The magâ€" istrate was of the opinion that the doctor‘s eviâ€" dence was quite admissable in this case, but pointed out that even without that evidence, there was enough testimony to fully warrant a convicâ€" tion for the offence charged. Another very inâ€" teresting note was made by the magistrate in reâ€" gard to the matter of the consent of an accused to such an examination. He pointed out that the English judge referred to by Mr. Kester had held that the police had no right to put a man through tests without his consent, and then the judge had added:â€""If they say he is able to give consent, then they have no business to come here and say he is drunk, because drunkenness destroys conâ€" sent."

Mr. Kester explained in court that his chief reaâ€"| son for bringing up the matter was to emphasize â€" Mrs, Annie Sims, wife of Rév. Canon the British rights of accused persons.
