The accused, N.J., was charged with sexual assault.
The central issue was consent, assessed through the credibility and reliability of the complainant, J.H., and the accused.
The court rejected the accused's implausible testimony, finding it undermined his credibility.
Despite some minor inconsistencies in the complainant's evidence, her testimony was found to be clear, concise, cogent, logical, and plausible, corroborated by text messages and a nurse practitioner's report.
The court found the Crown proved its case beyond a reasonable doubt and registered a conviction.
