Attorney General Ryan Pinder says none of the money requested from the AG’s Office to satisfy the $17.7 million in court settlements had “anything to do with any settlement of Shane Gibson”, who reached a multi-million settlement deal with the government after he alleged he was falsely imprisoned and maliciously prosecuted.
Pinder said the AG’s Office is not the responsible party for paying that settlement, but it is the Ministry of Finance. He added that all of the nearly $18 million in judgments owed, accrued on the books before September 16, 2021 — some going “way back multiple administrations”. He said it is inequitable that “we treat our people like that”.
