Crown Attorney Richard MacKinnon: Kenneth Haley

Kenneth Haley: Allegations that MacIntosh sexually abused children first surfaced in 1995, but he wasn't brought back to Canada until 2007, a year after Ottawa formally asked India to extradite him, according to CTV. It also singled out the oversight by Cape Breton's chief Crown attorney at the time, Kenneth Haley and HALIFAX -- A review says the workload facing a Crown attorney in Nova Scotia and two passport renewals were among several factors that delayed Ernest Fenwick MacIntosh's extradition to Canada to stand trial on 43 child sex abuse charges. The review said Crown attorney Richard MacKinnon failed to follow up promptly as the case moved along because of his Port Hawkesbury office's heavy workload and the volume of the other cases he was handling in court.
