On February 18, 2022, Evan Blackman was hit with his Criminal Code offences of mischief and obstructing police charges after officers in downtown Ottawa were conducting "enforcement action" against protesters that included the use of surveillance drones to clear out protesters. He was arrested and released from custody on the same day.

According to the Justice Centre for Constitutional Freedoms (JCCF), which helped Blackman with his legal case, the evidence against him "consisted of a 14-minute drone video (with no audio) and the testimony of one officer who was on the scene."

For about nine minutes of the video, Blackman was recorded as part of a large group of protesters standing in front of a line of police officers on Rideau Street. The JCCF noted that one video showed Blackman "deescalating the situation by holding other protesters back and by putting his hand up to stop protesters from confronting police."

"He is seen kneeling in front of police during the five minutes leading up to his arrest. At one point, while on his knees, he is seen taking off his hat, putting his hand on his chest, and singing 'O Canada,'" the JCCF said.

Remarkably, after being let go from jail, Blackman quickly realized all three of his bank accounts had been frozen, according to Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's Emergency Economic Measures Order.

Blackman pleaded not guilty to the charges and faced an October 23 trial before the judge "dismissed all charges against Mr. Blackman" due to lack of evidence.

Blackman's lawyer, Chris Fleury, and his client "are thrilled with this outcome."

"After almost 20 months, Mr. Blackman can finally put this matter behind him"... Subscribe for free to Breaking Christian News here
