Accuser's story built on 'white lie,' defence argues at Hockey Canada trial
Article content Humphrey also pointed to McLeod's 'consent' videos that he filmed showing the woman affirming she gave consent to all the sexual activity where she 'looks and sounds like someone not significantly affected by alcohol.' Article content Savard argued Hart's encounter with the woman was 'brief and unambiguously consensual.' Article content Hart, who Savard said was 'frank and forthright' in his testimony, was the only accused to testify. He described being drunk and excited to see a naked woman in the room who was asking for sexual encounters, how he asked for oral sex and how she consented. Article content 'It does make sense that Mr. Hart would seek explicit consent to oral sex,' Savard said. 'This was by everyone's account, a surreal sexual situation… And it is natural in that circumstance to ask a question aimed at making sure that this is real, that it's not a dream that is too good to be true,' she said. Article content Also, 'it was a negotiation that led to an activity that was clearly consensual for both,' Savard said. Article content Savard asked Carroccia to accept the evidence of Steenbergen and Howden that there was a single act of oral sex performed on Hart and there was no 'trio' of oral sex encounters as described by the woman, who didn't even identify Hart during the initial police investigation. Article content If there is any stereotype running through this trial, 'it is this insidious idea that hockey players by virtue of the fact that they play closely together on a team in professional sports naturally protect their own,' Savard said. Article content But she asked Carroccia to look at Hart's testimony, how he wasn't particularly helpful to the co-defendant's cases. 'The Crown's path to success depends on the Crown convincing your honour that these young men are effectively working in concert.' Article content 'These men are former professional colleagues who worked together for three weeks in 2018, did not know each other well beforehand, have not seen each other meaningfully since, and have no reason to lie for each other,' Savard said. Article content Article content She said there is 'an evidentiary gap on the issue of oppressive or coercive circumstances.' There was no physical coercion, no blocking of the door, no threats, no use of force, she said. Article content The woman had little memory of the sexual activities, Savard said. The woman also testified she went on 'auto-pilot' and adopted 'a porn star persona' and 'her body did a number of things that her mind hadn't authorized,' the lawyer said. Article content Even though Savard said the defence's primary position is that the woman 'was consenting enthusiastically, regretting it later,' the woman's testimony suggests that her initial state of mind when she looked out from the bathroom after having sex with McLeod and saw a group of men was 'worry,' which Savard argued isn't traumatic. Article content 'It is not in and of itself something that causes your mind to detach from your body and float onto the ceiling and remove your ability to choose,' she said. Article content Savard agreed that when there are coercive factors present, 'trauma can make you do all sorts of non-intuitive things… but the important piece here is that nothing traumatic has happened yet. Article content 'We're not talking about a victim of sexual assault… We're taking about a woman who's just had a consensual experience and is encountering not an assault, but people coming into a room. Not an assault, not a violation of her sexual integrity.' Article content

Inquest begins today into death of Windsor man at South West Detention Centre
First day of an inquest into the death of inmate Joseph Gratton at South West Detention Centre. CTV Windsor's Chris Campbell has details. First day of an inquest into the death of inmate Joseph Gratton at South West Detention Centre. CTV Windsor's Chris Campbell has details. A coroner's inquest is underway into the death of a 31-year-old man who died in custody at Windsor's South West Detention Centre in 2019. Joseph Gratton died on Oct. 30, 2019. His death is subject to a mandatory inquest under Ontario's Coroners Act, which requires one be held when a person dies while detained. The inquest, which began Monday morning and is expected to last five days, is being conducted by video conference. Dr. Richard Wells is presiding over the proceedings, with Julian Roy serving as inquest co-counsel. About five witnesses are expected to testify. Shortly after the inquest began, Roy acknowledged Gratton's mother, Lori Clifford, while expressing condolences and thanking her for participating in the process. 'Losing a family member before their time is a tragedy that is felt in unique and terrible ways,' Roy said. 'It's made worse in this case because Joseph was in a provincial correctional facility where you trusted he was safe in a difficult time in his life, and that faith you had in that system, that he would be safe there and in us was broken when he died.' He continued, 'I know that our process here cannot help you with your grief of losing your precious son and this is going to be a very difficult week for you to hear, but I hope you will get some answers about what happened, and this will help you in some measure with your healing.' The jury heard on the opening day that Jospeh Gratton died from fentanyl toxicity, according to autopsy results. A toxicology report that was entered as evidence revealed Gratton had 22 nanograms of fentanyl inside his system. The inquest is examining the circumstances that led to his death, including testimony that both Gratton and his cellmate, Blake Carter, were found in medical distress inside their cell by correctional officers. Carter survived the incident but has since died, the inquest heard. The first witness called was corrections officer Staff Sgt. Peter Spourdalakis, who oversaw operations for several units at the South West Detention Centre. While he had no direct issues with Gratton, he testified that Carter had a history of breaking facility rules and being caught with contraband. Jurors were also shown video evidence from inside the facility. One clip shows corrections officer Chris Rogers kicking on the door of Gratton and Carter's cell during an evening shift security check and shortly later returning when a commotion begins. The proceeding heard that Rogers, who was working an overtime shift, informed her supervisor she had previously experienced conflict with Gratton. Rogers is expected to testify on Tuesday. The jury also reviewed how staff responded once the medical emergency became apparent. In hindsight, Spourdalakis told the jury he would have had the sliding jail cell doors open differently and expressed interest in seeing additional security cameras installed throughout the facility. He noted since Gratton's death, there have been more unannounced K-9 searches that have proven effective at keeping contraband materials out of the corrections facility. The inquest may result in a series of recommendations aimed at preventing similar deaths in the future. Members of the public can view the proceedings live online. CTV News Windsor will provide updates as the inquest continues throughout the week.
