and, if the question is "expertise", let's look at the situation, in context.

the report was written by a police officer that probably has no legal training. the review was done by a civilian oversight body.

i'm asking for a ruling on an interpretation of the criminal code. so, where is the expertise, here? in the oiprd or in the judiciary?

i don't like this ruling, and i don't think it'll last very long. the exceptions for correctness are far too limited. and, if this is the case that opens it back up, so be it.

i will appeal this if i lose.
