The sexual assault trial involving five former members of the 2018 Canadian world junior hockey team is underway in London, Ontario. The defence is rigorously cross-examining the complainant, E.M., who maintains that the alleged group sexual activity was not consensual. All accused playersâDillon Dube, Cal Foote, Alex Formenton, Carter Hart, and Michael McLeodâplead not guilty. Legal experts note that E.M.'s extensive preparation for the trial contrasts with the concerns regarding her memory and behaviour during the alleged incident, illustrating the complexity of legal proceedings in such sensitive cases.
During the trial, the defence has pressed E.M. over her memory and behavior, with comments about her being well-prepared for cross-examination, raising questions about the preparation for such a sensitive case.
The accused players on trial have all pleaded not guilty to the allegations, and the complainant insists the group sexual activity was not consensual, amidst intense scrutiny from the defence.
