Charges dropped against Toronto woman charged after whistling near movie set


Mary Fish whistled a happy tune Wednesday.

The 54-year-old woman saw charges against her dropped, ending a 29-month ordeal that began Oct. 16, 2000 when she was arrested after whistling near a Toronto movie shoot.

The charges were stayed after lawyer Robert Rotenberg argued Fish's rights were violated because of the delay in bringing the case to trial, slated to start Wednesday.
