'Public narrative was one-sided': Hockey Canada sex assault defence lawyers respond to verdict
Five former Canadian world junior hockey players were found not guilty in a high-profile sexual assault trial related to a 2018 incident in London, Ont. The case had sparked a national reckoning over hockey culture, and what is and what isn't considered consent. Here's how the lawyers for Michael McLeod, Carter Hart, Alex Formenton, Dillon Dube and Callan Foote reacted to Ontario Superior Court Justice Maria Carroccia's verdict, which was delivered in a London courtroom on Thursday. Article content Article content Article content Mr. McLeod will not be speaking to the media, and I understand the other players will not be speaking to the media. I will not be taking questions and other counsel who come to address you, they will not be taking any questions. Article content Mr. McLeod had confidence in the Justice process, and he welcomes Justice Carrocia's decision, confirming that he and his co defendants are not guilty of sexual assault. Justice Carrocia's carefully reasoned decision represents a resounding vindication for Mr. McLeod and for his co defendants. Justice Carrocia's found that the complainant's testimony was incredible and was unreliable. Article content For years, public perception was shaped by a one-sided narrative from a civil lawsuit that went unchallenged. In large part because hockey Canada settled the claim without first informing or consulting the players. The decision was made unilaterally, and the players were only told of the lawsuit and the settlement after the fact. Had they been consulted, they would have refused to settle, and they would have vigorously contested EM's allegations. Article content Article content That version of events dominated headlines and created a lasting and, a false, a false impression of guilt. It was only through this criminal trial that the allegations were fully and finally tested. The court compared the complainant's 2018 statements to the police, which rightly resulted in no charges with the later conflicting civil claim. Key elements of EM's story were contradicted by the evidence, exposing serious falsehood and leading to today's clear and just verdict of not guilty. Justice Carrocia rejected EM's claims of fear and her claims of non consent. That should be the takeaway from today's judgment. Article content Article content The damage to Mr. McLeod's reputation and his career has been significant. But today's decision begins to restore what was very unfairly taken away from him. Mr. McLeod is deeply grateful to his family, friends, his agent, and everybody who stood by him.

'I flipped one of the the lids closed and I'm like … 'What the hell is this?'' she said. 'I flipped the other one closed and I'm like, 'Are you kidding me?!'' Upon taking her dog for a walk south towards Bloor St. W., she noticed other trash bins along her street had been likewise targeted by vandals. After arriving, police told her that it wasn't an isolated incident, and that they were investigating more incidents of hateful graffiti in the area. Toronto Police confirmed to the Sun that an investigation is underway. Read More This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below. This west-end neighbourhood has become a nucleus for much of west-end Toronto's anti-Israel activism, with Palestinian flags and anti-Israel signs, literature and graffiti commonplace. The office of Davenport MP Julie Dzerowicz, located just down the road at Bloor and Dufferin, is a frequent target of anti-Israel activists and vandals, usually armed with red paint. A public square just north of the nearby Bloor GO Train station was taken over by local activists and renamed 'Gaza Square.' The neighbourhood was also where a campaigner for failed NDP federal candidate Sandra Sousa told an area resident at their door that Israeli Jews should be 'deported to New York City.' That campaign worker was fired and the Sousa campaign offered an apology to the resident. Anybody with information should call police or Crime Stoppers. bpassifiume@ X: @bryanpassifiume Sports Ontario World Wrestling Canada
