again, i'm left to wonder if my situation is so egregious as to be unique, because i'm not immediately finding information on s. 6 related to the question of fingerprinting on withdrawn charges.

the charter was written in 1982, so the americans have two hundreds of precedent on us, here. but, what i'm looking for is an argument around the idea of due process, which seems to be more developed in the american jurisprudence.

i was arrested without a warrant, and charged while in custody without a judge ever even looking at the evidence. when the justice looked at it, i was released with no meaningful conditions. so, there's no due process, there, and i am, in fact, currently being denied mobility rights in the absence of it.

it's as strong an argument as the rest of it.

and, it goes back to the question of a lack of judicial oversight in the arrest process.

the answer is that you shouldn't print somebody until or unless a judge or justice orders it.
