Lawyer Gavin Cameron continued his closing arguments for a second day in B-C Supreme Court.
James was charged with fraud and breach of trust based on allegations of misspending.
But Cameron says two people stand by their decisions on James receiving a 258-thousand-dollar retirement benefit and two others followed policy in approving his travel expense claims.
On September 23, 2021, at approximately 5:00 am, Surrey RCMP responded to the report of two males shot at a residence in the 8800 block of 140B Street. A 23-year-old man and a 47-year-old man were transported to hospital with what are believed to be non-life threatening injuries.
The officers recognized the person behind the wheel, and confirmed via police checks that he was prohibited from driving. Although the police were in an unmarked vehicle, and had not yet engaged their emergency equipment, the driver reacted and fled the area at a high rate of speed.
