Kingston police say a man has been charged for trying to “dissuade” a domestic assault victim not to testify against him.
Between June and September, police say a Kingston man was sending a woman numerous messages on multiple social media platforms, despite being under conditions not to contact her due to previous domestic violence-related charges.
Police say they saw several messages sent to the woman that attempted to deny the incidents, convince the victim to change her testimony, and delete their social media conversations.
