"Glenn Anderson told the court he was on call to drive Stronach to work events, meetings and other engagements for roughly a decade in the 1980s. He testified that Stronach wasn't a "car guy" and didn't own any European or sports cars only Cadillacs."
"The final of seven complainants testified last week that Stronach picked her up in a low-slung, two-door foreign car she believed was a Porsche."
"Crown prosecutor Jelena Vlacic told court Monday that two more charges will be withdrawn in in the sexual assault trial of Frank Stronach, who now faces seven counts, down from the original 12."
In the sexual assault trial of Canadian auto parts magnate Frank Stronach, defence lawyers presented witnesses Monday to challenge the prosecution's case. The former driver testified that Stronach exclusively owned Cadillacs throughout the 1980s and was not interested in European or sports cars. This testimony directly contradicts a complainant's account that Stronach picked her up in a low-slung, two-door foreign vehicle believed to be a Porsche. The trial involves seven charges against Stronach, reduced from the original twelve counts. The charges relate to alleged incidents spanning from the 1970s onward involving four complainants. Stronach, founder of Magna International, has pleaded not guilty to all charges.
