The accused was charged with sexual assault with a weapon, possession of a weapon for a dangerous purpose, sexual assault, and simple assault against the complainant.
The Crown alleged that the accused cut the complainant's vaginal wall with an X-Acto knife at a motel and subsequently sexually assaulted her at a hotel.
The accused claimed all sexual contact was consensual and that the vaginal injury resulted from his penile beads during rough consensual intercourse.
The trial turned on credibility between the two witnesses, with medical evidence corroborating a vaginal cut but not definitively establishing its cause.
The court found significant inconsistencies in both parties' accounts and concerning conduct by the accused, but ultimately acquitted on most charges due to reasonable doubt.
