the husband, Michael, bought a lottery ticket and won a fully furnished dream home.The couple tried getting back together in the new place, but that did not last more than a few months.


"Michael testified that he was forced out of the family home without warning and in a startling fashion," Dufour wrote. According to the decision, Rhonda made a complaint to police that she had been physically assaulted. That led to charges against Michael and an interim order that he stay 200 metres away from Rhonda.
When that case went to trial, Michael was acquitted.
"I can only conclude that Rhonda gave a false statement to the police," Dufour said in his decision on the divorce. "This was a very effective way to have the family home all to herself: make a false allegation of assault and have Michael charged with a criminal offence so that he would have to stay away. Neat trick. A model of efficiency."

I know cbc was just waitin' for me to comment...so i will oblige.

"I can only conclude that Rhonda gave a false statement to the police,"

Considering this is the #1 tactic of female abuse i am surprised the judge didn't fall for it.

I betcha she wasn't charged for lieing----may stop other women from filing false accusations.

I guess it wasn't a liberal appointed judge who bought themselves a seat on the bench.
