- R. c. B. (KG) (connu sous le nom d'affaire KGB) est un arrêt de principe de la Cour suprême du Canada dans le domaine de la preuve pénale, concernant l'admissibilité de déclarations antérieures incompatibles comme preuve de la véracité de leur contenu. Avant cette affaire, des déclarations antérieures incompatibles faites par un témoin autre qu'un accusé pouvaient simplement être utilisées pour attaquer la crédibilité du témoin, et non à des fins substantielles. En l'espèce, la Cour a statué que si les déclarations satisfont aux critères de nécessité et de fiabilité, elles peuvent alors être admises à titre d'exception à la règle du ouï-dire. (fr)
- R v B (KG), [1993] 1 SCR 740, popularly known as the KGB case, is a leading Supreme Court of Canada decision on the admissibility of prior inconsistent statements as proof of the truth of their contents. Prior to this case, prior inconsistent statements made by a witness other than an accused could merely be used to impeach the witness's credibility, not for substantive purposes. Here, the Court held that if the statements could be found to be both necessary and reliable then the statements could be admitted as an exception to the hearsay rule. (en)
