Les tribunaux reconnaissent que l'heure sur un enregistrement vidéo peut être souvent inexacte

R. v Jackson-Bullshields, 2017 BCSC 1159

Lien vers la décision

[32]        Moreover, during the course of proceedings, defence counsel pointed out that the time stamp on the video was incorrect. While the time of day matched up with eyewitness testimony, the time stamp indicated that the date was July 17, 2016, rather than July 16, 2016. Courts have recognized that time stamps on such videos “are often inaccurate”: R. v. James, 2015 ONSC 3902 at para. 31. In cases where this is an issue, when presented with expert evidence, courts have made findings regarding the “actual time” captured in a video: R. v. Cook, 2015 BCSC 301 at para. 68. However, I have not given the video substantial weight due to the problem with the time stamp. However, it is useful to indicate once again the escape route taken by the person who caused the accident and ran from the scene.
