Romeo Phillion, the man who languished behind bars for more than three decades for a wrongful murder conviction, sued the Ontario Attorney General, the Ottawa Police Services Board and two former police officers for 14-million dollars. The suit was filed three years after his conviction in the murder of Leopold Roy was quashed by an Ontario court. Phillion's lawyer David Robins said the suit alleged negligence from the Ottawa Police service. (The 73-year-old also sued the Ontario attorney general's office and two individual police officers.)
