Court Throws Out Disputed Charges - Peter Zahoruk - Innocent!

I wouldn't have to publish this website if there was justice in terms of how information is catalogued on the Internet. Unfortunately, for the time being, I have to fight misinformation on the web about a personally trying court matter here on my own personal site.

The bottom line is that I was victimized by a bullying group of people who sought control over my bank account and control over me. I chose not to go to the police because of harassment at my home and workplace overwhelming me to the point of remaining silent and hoping everything would just "go away".

I could not explain the situation as it were because I was afraid for my personal safety from people who threatened me if I did not provide cash payments to remain silent or withdraw the charges. I contacted a lawyer and the lawyer instructed me to go through litigation in court with the evidence I had.

Fortunately for me, the matter never made it past testing of evidence and never went to trial as the court ruled that the system that guarantees justice would be negatively effected if the matter was to go through to a trial based on the Crown's own scant evidence, much of which was contradictory to what was presented.

I myself had records of the intimidation by the claimant presented in court, and it was revealed that the complainant had made similar efforts to fraudulently harm others in the same way as they did me.

I would like to refrain from identifying the complainant in this case, despite the harm that has occurred to my own reputation, and for my safety in putting an end to the harassment. Because of the mental health matters involved in this case, I have been referred to materials that say this is a kind of "fawning" or "performing" over the feelings of someone who victimized me but it's just how I would like things to remain for now.

Thank you for reading.

Fighting The Good Fight - Peter Zahoruk - Innocent!

It's not funny, it's tragic...you know... how some people will seek to exploit the court system for their own benefit. I was stuck with a person who wanted to see me suffer for not engaging in an extortion deal that ended up bringing down the whole case in front of a Judge.

Since that time I've learned quite a bit about trust and the depths at which some people will go to target a person. In the matter of my case, settled before ANY trial in ANY provincial court, my team simply had to see the matter through until evidence was provided of innocence. 

Unfortunately, since the mental health is involved of all parties, it's a difficult matter to discuss. Although I proved my innocence in court, I still am resolved to the truth and the fact that at the end of the day, no trial was ever held and my name was cleared by honesty and a good legal representative.

As soon as my legal team produced evidence that the claimant was not telling the truth and witness evidence was produced, the Judge ended the legal matter and it was finished. I still had to deal with personal grief but felt confident in my ability to go on.

I will continue writing about this matter on a regular basis to continue upholding my name.

This Matter Was Thrown Out Of Court - Peter Zahoruk - Innocent!

It's difficult to conceive of anything more destroying than false charges yet here is where we are. Years later and I'm still chasing down false Internet reports and worse among those years old media reports that accused - but did not follow up - with the outcome of the matter. 

The judge in my legal case ruled that evidence collected and provided by the police was inconsistent with the truth and so thus, it was dismissed before ever making it very far in the legal system.

Furthermore, the matter was dismissed at the point I provided phone records of an attempt at extortion for $1200 by multiple parties abusing the court process. Quite simply, I had the favor of evidence and my extortionist did not. Furthermore, there were so many lies by the claimant that the judge in the case said the reputation of the entire court system was at risk shall the matter continue.

Still, that doesn't mean on first glance my Internet record looks great. I have been traumatized by the entire process and know that I will recover. If you are reading this, and you found your way here, give me a break.

Almost a decade ago, I was a different person. A group of people took advantage of me because they thought I had access to money. I did not, and could not afford the extortionist's price sought to drop charges so I found myself in the unenviable process of proving myself in court. I did and I still am clear of any criminal record.

Justice And The Law - Acquitted - Peter Zahoruk - Innocent!

The truth of the matter is, police make mistakes. As many circumstances prove, the results of any court matter are not predetermined.

Being acquitted of a crime, any crime, is a big deal. The ability of a defendant using legal aid to defend themselves is paramount to a sound legal system.

From time to time, legal charges will reveal more about the character of the person charged than those doing the charging.

With that said, extortion is a serious matter. Staring at the headlights of the justice system while managing threatening calls against my life demanding a cash payment to drop the matter was intimidating but not impossible. 

What was excruciating was the wait for courtroom evidence reveal to submit records of these calls.

It's been almost a decade since I openly talked about this while slander and libel went on all around me due to a matter that had to wind its way through the courts for me to be proven innocent. Now I hope to talk about it more.

In the coming months, I will add more information to this page and discuss more.
