Crown invites acquittal after hearing defence case

February 2021

On February 18, 2021, Trevor Martin’s client, a member of the RCMP, was found not guilty of sexual assault after a trial in Kelowna, BC. After the complainant and the client both testified, the Crown invited the Court to acquit. Cross-examination by Trevor revealed frailties in the complainant’s evidence, while the Crown acknowledged there were no similar issues with the client’s testimony, and the Court agreed that the evidence did not support a finding of guilt.
