Glen Clark judged not a criminal in court ruling
Paul Willcocks argues Clark showed poor judgment and sloppiness as premier. The Supreme Court acquitted him amid claims of suspect conduct and a desperate push for gambling funds, with aides and ministers facing uncomfortable scrutiny in a saga of misdirection and political pressure.

Clark acquittal ends BC political sideshow
Justice Bennett found the charges justified by the evidence, while defence attacks on RCMP staff were dismissed as bogus. The trial focused on whether laws were broken, with Clark as criminal defendant after his home was searched. The system worked as serious charges against the powerful were pursued and the court ruled fairly. Paul Willcocks notes the episode as irrelevant yet revealing in BC politics.
