Whispering Pines: Shirley Browne

Shirley Browne: I may have my times crossed, Shirley Browne, owner of Whispering Pines bed and breakfast in Georgina, said during cross-examination Friday, according to The Star. In Thursdays testimony, Browne had described an amicable parting that included a goodbye lunch and a hug. When questioned Friday, she said both stories were true and she must be mixed up on timing and An innkeeper suing the Toronto Star for libel has admitted to telling two different stories under oath about how a foreign worker she was accused of employing illegally as a domestic servant ended up leaving her inn. As Star lawyer Paul Schabas challenged Brownes credibility on the third day of trial, the innkeeper admitted she had previously said under oath that she had kicked Catherine Manuel, a foreign worker in her care, out of her house after hearing a rumour that Manuel had told people she wasnt being fed.
