Five former members of Canada’s 2018 world junior hockey team have been found not guilty in their high-profile sexual-assault trial. Justice Maria Carroccia delivered her verdict in London, Ont., on Thursday, after a mistrial and two dismissed juries.
Globe and Mail reporter Robyn Doolittle has been covering the case since London Police reopened the investigation in 2022. On July 28 at 1 p.m. ET, Doolittle will be answering reader questions about the case, the trial and the verdict.
Why were two juries dismissed? What has the atmosphere been like in the courtroom? What does this trial mean for the reckoning it prompted in Canada’s beloved game, and for young women across the country? How could the proceedings – and the verdict – affect victims’ willingness to come forward?
