    ACourt

    In the latest acquittal related to a high-profile Canadian sexual-assault case, a judge has found three Toronto male police officers not guilty of forcing sex on a heavily intoxicated woman, and argued that the rising movement to “believe the victim” has no place in the courts.

    The complainant, a female parking-enforcement officer, testified that she had been so drunk or drugged that she couldn’t move or speak during the January, 2015, incident, which occurred in a hotel room. But Ontario Superior Court Justice Anne Molloy said she could not rely on the complainant’s testimony, which she found inconsistent, implausible at times and contradicted by – on the key issue of her capacity to consent – video recordings and a toxicologist.

    “Although the slogan ‘Believe the victim’ has become popularized of late, it has no place in a criminal trial,” Justice Molloy wrote in a 45-page ruling released Wednesday. She said the assumption that sexual-assault complainants tell the truth imposes a presumption of guilt on the accused.

    Justice Molloy’s ruling also was similar to two Superior Court rulings in Alberta and Ontario in the past nine months, in which convictions were overturned on the basis that trial judges had been unfair to accused men.

    She told the trial she had had eight drinks. But video recordings from outside the bar where she had left with several men, and a recording from the hotel lobby that she had then entered, showed her steady on her feet, chatting and laughing, the judge said. A toxicologist testified that the 200-pound complainant would have been only tipsy, based on the amount of liquor she said she had consumed over several hours. If she had been drugged, the effects would have been felt sooner, and would not have been intermittent.

    Sounds like judges (even some female) are realizing that a woman’s testimony is not automatically true. This is great news! Fortunately, I have never been accused of sexual assault, but I will never have sex with a drunk woman ever again. Just not worth the risk of 20 years behind bars if the little snowflake wants to ruin my life.

    Nobody would bang her willingly so she cried rape.

    It took a female judge, and male cops. Don’t expect this to apply to a normal male. And especially not with blue pill manginas on the bench.
