===Domestic disturbances=== In 2008, after a [[9-1-1]] call from the Ford home, he was charged with assault and threatening to kill his wife. The Crown attorney said "there was no reasonable prospect of conviction" because there were "credibility issues" with allegations by Ford's wife due to inconsistencies in her statements. Ford said at the time that he was glad the ordeal was over and that he and his wife had sought marital counselling.<ref>{{cite news |first=Dale Anne|last=Freed|title=Assault charge against councillor withdrawn |work=Toronto Star|date=May 22, 2008|url=https://www.thestar.com/News/GTA/article/428496}}</ref> In two separate incidents, on October 25, 2011, and again on December 25, 2011, police were called to Ford's home to investigate domestic disputes.
