The altercation that led to a Supreme Court Justice resigning

It’s one that started in an Arizona hotel and ended with his resignation nearly six months later. The Globe’s Justice writer Sean Fine reports on what happened, how the investigation unfolded and what this means for Canada’s highest court both in terms of public confidence and its composition going forward.
