Ontario court tosses out Timothy Rees’s 1990 conviction in murder of 10-year-old girl
November 27, 2025
Thirty-five years after Timothy Rees was found guilty of murdering a 10-year-old girl, the Ontario Court of Appeal has quashed his conviction, ruling that a miscarriage of justice occurred in the case.
In its decision Thursday, the court concluded that Mr. Rees did not get a fair trial back in 1990, because important evidence – a tape recording of a conversation between police and a viable alternate suspect – was withheld from his defence team by police.
