What a stupid LIAR!!!

Chef cooked RCMP

After 7 years in jail Alberta man wrongly convicted gets $2.2M

By KATHLEEN HARRIS, OTTAWA BUREAU

OTTAWA -- An Alberta man who spent seven years in prison for a sexual assault he didn't commit was the recipient of a $2.2-million secret settlement by the RCMP for malicious prosecution, Sun Media has learned.

Steven Kaminski was labelled a dangerous offender in a bizarre case his lawyer has described as "unusual beyond belief."

The former chef was convicted in 1992 of raping a co-worker, but it was later revealed the female complainant had sex several times with the Mountie assigned to investigate the case, as well as with a witness called to testify against Kaminski.

Despite repeated protests that the sexual encounter was consensual, Kaminski was found guilty of entering his 24-year-old co-worker's cabin at a resort near Red Deer and raping her. Former federal justice minister Martin Cauchon eventually ordered a new trial, but provincial authorities opted not to proceed with a new prosecution. The whopping $2.2-million payout was quietly listed in the government's just-released public accounts documents, but the name of the recipient was withheld.

Kaminski's lawyer Hersh Wolch could not confirm his client's settlement or disclose any details due to a confidentiality agreement.

"The case is closed; I can say that," he said. "We are content with what occurred but we are bound by confidentiality." Wolch is the Calgary-based lawyer who helped David Milgaard get $10 million for the 23 years he spent behind bars for a murder he didn't commit.
