Pat King, a key figure in what became the Freedom Convoy protest that paralyzed downtown Ottawa in early 2022, has been found guilty of most charges against him for his role.

Superior Court Justice Charles Hackland is delivering his decision at the Ottawa Courthouse Friday.

King has been found guilty of five charges including mischief, counselling to commit mischief and disobeying a court order.

He's been found not guilty of three charges: intimidation, counselling to commit intimidation and obstructing a public or peace officer.

If he doesn't see the inside of a cell my displeasure will be immense.

* Matrix is an open source and potentially distributed chat protocol. The matrix room listed is hosted on matrix.org, a somewhat centralized hub for a lot of currently public rooms. Though the protocol itself is free, libre and open source, the deployment of the protocol resembles a centralized service. This may be fixed in the future with the deployment of independent servers.
