A Winnipeg firefighter and martial arts instructor has been acquitted of sexually assaulting a woman during a lengthy off-and-on relationship she claimed began when she was a teen.
Manny Ruiz, 56, stood trial last year, charged with two counts of sexual assault, three counts of uttering threats, and one count of forcible entry involving a now 46-year-old woman.
While Ruiz’s testimony was at times suspect, somewhat evasive and not entirely believable, the evidence of the alleged victim did not prove guilt beyond a reasonable doubt, said Justice Joan McKelvey.
Woman files claim against attorney
Wednesday 3 March 2021
A CUNUPIA woman has filed a claim in the High Court to get back $292,243.49 from a female Port of Spain attorney who handled the family’s Estate. The claim, filed by attorneys from the firm, Martin George and Co, comes up for hearing in April before Justice Joan Charles.
The claim alleges the attorney consistently failed and/or refused to account for the money which was supposed to be distributed among the beneficiaries of an Estate of a man who died in 2011.
The claim also seeks damages for conversion of the money the attorney received and alleges that since 2017, the woman has been trying to get the attorney to pay out the money from the Estate.
