This is the best summary I could come up with:
The 51-year-old has already pleaded not guilty to all six charges against him, including multiple counts under the Security of Information Act — the law meant to protect Canada's secrets.
The Crown alleges Ortis used his position as the head of a highly-sensitive unit within the RCMP to attempt to sell intelligence gathered by Canada and its Five Eyes allies to individuals linked to the criminal underworld.
Ramos, the former Canadian CEO of Phantom Secure Communications, had been on investigators' radar for years and was suspected of providing encrypted phones to organized crime and money-laundering operations to help them evade arrest.
They include intelligence reports the Crown says Ortis sent to individuals the RCMP was keeping tabs on as part of an international money-laundering investigation.
Over the past five weeks, the 12-person jury has heard from nearly a dozen witnesses — including former colleagues of Ortis who testified behind closed doors — and has reviewed more than 500 pages of evidence.
The OR was set up to sift through Canadian and allied intelligence and brief senior decision makers within the RCMP on threats and opportunities in ways that wouldn't expose top-secret information in open court.
