Description

November 19 Toronto The Barracks trial began at Old City Hall. Andy Fabo, Paul Gaudet, George Hislop, Jerry Levy, and Rick Stenhouse were charged with being keepers of a common bawdy house, stemming from a police raid on the Barracks bathhouse on December 9, 1978. Defence lawyer Morris Manning asked for an adjournment, stating that he intended to challenge the constitutional validity of the vaguely worded bawdy house laws. Provincial Court Judge Harold A. Rice reserved judgement on the constitutional motions and adjourned the case until January 4, 1980. (See also November 28, 1979, and January 4, 1980.)
