This FINAL instalment wraps up our coverage and analysis of the Hockey Canada scandal and trial. At the end, Kristi shares her personal opinion about what likely happened in Room 209 that night — and why the verdicts would have remained the same anyway. The difference is in how the judge got there.

Thanks for your patience with this deep-dive series and for allowing us the time to give it the attention it deserves!

Please note: this series does not dispute the judge’s not guilty verdicts.

Our position is that the framing of the evidence in the written decision was unnecessary and damaging, with impact that extends far beyond the trial.
