Ontario Superior Court of Justice, October 21, 2008

 For two years, Edmonton resident William Grosvenor engaged in a virtual
campaign of terror against Ottawa human rights lawyer Richard Warman.
Grosvenor bombarded the Internet with calls to murder Warman while
providing his home address, and links to pictures of him and Google maps
on how to get to his home. Combined with this were hundreds of online
postings attempting to destroy Warman's personal and professional
reputation. 

Now a judge of the Ontario Superior Court of Justice has granted an
injunction to put an end to it and has awarded Warman $50,000 in damages
for defamation and assault, the latter stemming from Grosvenor's death
threats and incitement to violence. These threats of violence repeatedly
called for Warman's murder, described him as a "Dead Jew walking", and
said: "I AM GOD AND I HAVE A RUGER P-90 AND IT'S BULLETS HAVE YOUR NAME ON
THEM FAGBOY WARMAN?." [sic] 

In her decision issued 20 October 2008, Justice Lynn Ratushny found that
despite Grosvenor having filed papers saying he intended to defend the
civil suit, he never did and was thus deemed to have admitted the
allegations against him. Instead of defending the action, the day after
being served with the statement of claim on 15 Jan. 2008 , Grosvenor began
sending waves of emails to Warman's personal email address repeating his
online threats and libel. 

Justice Ratushny described Grosvenor's defamatory postings as "vicious,
profane and extreme". She found they were made dishonestly and in knowing
or reckless disregard for the truth, and said it amounted to "highly
reprehensible misconduct". sHe went on to note the level of hatred and
anger contained in Grosvenor's threats. Justice Ratushny said Grosvenor's
efforts to target Warman for violence, including repeatedly providing his
home address during a two-year period, took them beyond empty threats and
meant they had to be taken seriously. 

Warman is an Ottawa lawyer who has successfully filed and litigated 14
cases against members of the white supremacist and neo-Nazi movements
under the Canadian Human Rights Act provisions prohibiting the spreading
of hate propaganda through the Internet. 

Responding to the decision, Warman said "I'm hugely relieved that the
injunction has been granted and hope this will bring an end to this
two-year long nightmare." He continued, "I wish I had never heard of
William Grosvenor, but if someone is going to encourage people to kill me
then I'm going to see what I can do to stop them." 

The terms of the injunction granted by Justice Ratushny at paragraph 92 of
her judgement reference the submissions of the plaintiff at subparas.
119(c-f). These sub-paragraphs require Grosvenor to issue a complete
retraction of the defamatory comments; take all reasonable steps to remove
them and his threats from the Internet; prohibit him from publishing
further defamatory material or incitement to violence; and also from
contacting or communicating with Warman in any way.
