The Crown appealed the respondent's acquittals on charges of sexual assault and sexual interference involving a child complainant.
The Crown argued the trial judge failed to consider all identification evidence and failed to provide sufficient reasons for the acquittals.
The Superior Court of Justice dismissed the summary conviction appeal, finding no palpable and overriding error in the trial judge's assessment of the evidence and concluding that the reasons provided a clear analytical path explaining the acquittals based on the complainant's reliability.
