Jane Doe v. Board of Commissioners
His fifth victim, using the
pseudonym "Jane Doe", successfully sued the Toronto police for not having warned women in her neighbourhood about the four earlier
rapes. She also claimed that the police were using her as bait to draw out the predator. In a case filed as
Jane Doe v. Board of Commissioners of Police for the Municipality of Metropolitan Toronto, Doe won her case and on July 3, 1998, was awarded damages of $220,000 plus interest by the
Ontario Court of Justice (General Division). She was subsequently named Woman of the Year by the Canadian women's magazine
Chatelaine in 1999, and published the book
The Story of Jane Doe: A Book About Rape in 2003. ==Prison and later life==
