“Having cases stayed for unreasonable delay is clearly not in the public interest. We have reviewed the circumstances that led to the delay in this case in our efforts to reduce the likelihood of this happening in the future, and we will continue our efforts to ensure that charges are resolved in as timely a manner as possible,” Laughlin said in a written statement.
The 13 charges of fraud over $5,000 and 13 charges of theft over $5,000 were filed on Jan. 30, 2017, against Miller, in his early 70s, following an investigation by the Vancouver police.
