The accused was charged with assault and breach of probation following an alleged domestic incident at a hotel.
The Crown's case relied primarily on the evidence of the complainant, who alleged the accused punched her in the face and head.
The court found significant inconsistencies in the complainant's evidence, including her denial of interactions with the accused's mother shortly after the incident, her fabricated claim that the accused barricaded himself in the room, and her denial of telling a witness she fell on the stairs.
Due to these inconsistencies and concerns about her level of intoxication, the court found her evidence unreliable.
The accused was acquitted of all charges.
