WASHINGTON — Supreme Court Justice Russell Brown spoke out Friday, a rarity for a member of Canada's highest court, about an alleged altercation in Arizona that triggered a complaint to the Canadian Judicial Council.
In a statement issued by his lawyers, Brown denied details in a newspaper story published Thursday that reported allegations he"harassed" a group of friends during a Jan. 28 encounter at a Scottsdale resort lounge.
"However, to protect the women and to prevent the drunk, creepy, unwanted male from entering the hotel room uninvited, Crump punched a few times." Brown described Crump's version of events as"demonstrably false," saying he was invited to join the group before what his statement described as an unprovoked attack.
Brown, who was appointed to the Supreme Court in 2015 by then-prime minister Stephen Harper, was taking part in an awards ceremony and banquet at the resort ahead of the encounter.
