Hamilton man guilty of attempted murder for running down witness
The four men were in the midst of an hours-long crime spree when they rammed a stolen white boom truck into the wall of EZEE Clean car wash , trying to get into the Stoney Creek business. But they had a problem. It was shortly before 7 a.m. on Feb. 5, 2023, and a witness — a man they did not know — was walking by 264 Highway 8 . The witness walked toward the crash and appeared to pull out his phone to record the crime. That's when Maxwell Swiston, behind the wheel of a 2022 Chevrolet Silverado, began driving toward the man. At first, the witness walked to the parking lot of a nearby Scotiabank, court heard — but when the truck followed, he had nowhere to turn. 'The only thing I can recall is that when I got there, I still had nowhere to run, nowhere to hide,' Michael Busija said in court, words repeated by Ontario Court Justice Amanda Camara when she convicted Swiston last month. 'I had two alleys, one beside the Scotiabank and then one next to it. There is another alley by the car wash. I knew if I went in either alley, I'd be an easy target.' Trapped, Busija ran in front of the car wash. He told the court he was focused on survival and believed his life was in danger. The last thing he remembers is running away from the truck, but a witness and surveillance video clearly captured what happened next — the truck reversed straight into Busija and fled. His injuries were life-threatening, including a skull fracture and brain bleed, along with crushing injuries to his abdomen that included broken ribs and damage to one of his lungs, liver, adrenal gland and diaphragm. Following a judge-alone trial, Camara found Swiston deliberately drove at Busija and the 'only reasonable inference to be drawn' was that he intended to kill. On June 25, Swiston was convicted of attempted murder, dangerous driving causing bodily harm and possession of property obtained by crime over $5,000 in relation to the boom truck. During the trial in May, Swiston admitted to breaking into the car wash, breaking into another business (Robins Electric on Canborough Road), arson at the Canborough Road property and possession of property obtained by crime over $5,000 for the pickup truck he was driving. Through defence lawyer Laura Giordano, Swiston argued that despite being in the pickup, another man seated in the middle of the bench seating hit the gas pedal, shifted the truck into reverse and grabbed the wheel. But after reviewing the video and other evidence, including expert testimony on the operation of the Chevy and on collision reconstruction, Camara found that was not believable. There was no evidence of hard breaking, dynamic driving or anything that created doubt that it was Swiston in control of the truck the whole time, Camara found. From the video, brake lights only briefly appeared when the truck went over a curb — perhaps indicating they were tapped — but on average, the pickup was travelling 29 km/h. Defence had also argued that because Swiston wasn't the one operating the boom truck, he was not guilty of possessing it. However, Camara found that all four men were working together during the crime spree, and he was guilty because he was a party to the offence. Swiston's three accomplices in the break-ins all previously pleaded guilty to property crimes in relation to the break-in spree. The spree began earlier that morning at Robins Electric, where the group was captured on video stealing from the business, leaving and then returning again to get the boom truck that was then driven just over 40 km away to the car wash. Afterwards, they again returned to Robins Electric where the pickup was set on fire, causing fire damage to the business. Surveillance video at both sites was 'crystal clear,' Camara noted. It showed Swiston in a bright orange hoodie and walking with a distinct limp. He was the only person to drive the Chevy pickup, which he rented from a U-Haul in December 2022 and never returned. The rims had been changed and the truck painted black. Swiston told many lies to police when he was arrested, including initially denying being the man in orange and claiming the pickup was stolen. He later admitted those two facts, and also admitted to setting the truck on fire at Robins Electric following the incident at the car wash. But other lies he stuck to, including the possibility that the man in the middle seat hit the gas, which the court rejected. Ultimately, Camara found his police statement unreliable, except where corroborated by other evidence. The case returns Aug. 26 for a sentencing hearing. Assistant Crown Jill McKenzie noted that the Crown is seeking a significant penitentiary sentence. Error! Sorry, there was an error processing your request. There was a problem with the recaptcha.
