The appellants appealed their conviction for indecent assault, arguing the trial judge erred in his charge to the jury regarding the uncontradicted evidence of the complainant and her prior inconsistent statements.
The Supreme Court of Canada dismissed the appeal, finding no reversible error.
The Court held that the trial judge adequately directed the jury on the danger of convicting on the complainant's evidence alone, and that the circumstances did not require a specific Binet warning regarding prior inconsistent statements since none related to the issue of consent.
