The lawyer representing a Toronto city councillor who is facing sexual assault charges has stepped away from the case, one day after the allegations came to light.
The sexual assault charges Toronto city councillor Michael Thompson is facing relate to alleged incidents that took place at a private residence in Muskoka, according to police.
His name is Winston LaRose, but to countless Torontonians he is known as “Mr. Jane and Finch,” a fitting tribute forever connecting him to the community he loves.
