I'm putting this out there for the Court Of Public Opinion to weigh in on! 

For a long time I have been trying to get answers to WHY this happened, WHY! 
For nearly 2.5yrs i was silenced on social media, news media, and interviews while others were writing books, traveling all around the world, and propped up.

I never talked, I never "RATTED"! But man your testimony pointed 👉🏼 at me!

## What the video claims
Pat King says he has evidence about the February 2022 Ottawa airport slow-roll that was not used at trial. He claims:
- an Ottawa airport police-liaison officer testified she had no interaction with him, while video shows interaction;
- contemporaneous airport/news material showed minimal disruption and all flights green/on time;
- Tom Marazzo wrote that he organized the Ottawa airport slow roll and that it was not meant to shut the airport down;
- King is now headed to resentencing on the same incident without a retrial;
- the Court of Appeal should not have gone directly to conviction/resentencing.

## Court record checked
Official decision: R. v. King, 2026 ONCA 522, Court of Appeal for Ontario, released July 17, 2026.

- The trial judge characterized the slow roll as “serious public mischief aimed at a major transportation hub with the intent of disrupting passenger arrivals and departures.”
