Back to EpisodesStronach Trial: Defense Blames #MeToo, Police Bias
Description
The sexual assault trial of auto parts billionaire Frank Stronach is nearing its end in Toronto. Defense lawyers have criticized the police investigation, accusing it of bias and negligence. They argue that the investigation was influenced by MeToo politics and that the prosecutions case is based on flawed evidence. The defense claims that two of the four women testifying made up stories, while two regretted consensual encounters. The judge in the case has also raised questions about the impact of time and societal norms on the case. The final decision now rests with Judge Molloy, who will weigh the evidence and make a ruling.
