Talk:Jian Ghomeshi

message: The phrase “Judge […] accused” in "Criminal charges and trial" section explicitly contravenes MOS:ACCUSED. It should be neutered to something like ’Judge […] stated’ followed immediately by the quoted-phrased repurposed. 103.163.124.73 (talk) 04:52, 11 November 2021 (UTC)

// Lawyer Marie Henein was able to access thousands of messages between Ghomeshi's accusers, and presented them during the trial.(92) Justice William B. Horkins rebuked the complainants for, in his words, providing "deceptive and manipulative" evidence.(93) He had the opinion that the accusers' testimonies "suffered not just from inconsistencies and questionable behaviour, but was tainted by outright deception,"(91) and that their behaviour "was 'out of harmony' with what he would suspect of a victim of sexual assault."
The judge's comments were later widely criticized for being misogynist, and showing a lack of understanding of the consequential behaviour of sexual assault victims.(97), , ,  // 76.65.25.131 (talk) 23:15, 16 March 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: * You would need to get consensus for such a significant change, and your sources do not even come close to supporting your claim that the "judge's comments were later widely criticized for being misogynist, and showing a lack of understanding of the consequential behaviour of sexual assault victims." Two of your your sources do not address the issue at all, one of them is just one person's opinion that "many judges do not seem to understand the dynamics of these situations", and the fourth is paywalled (and after looking at the first three I'm not going to chase this any further). That's certainly not evidence of widespread criticism of a judge's supposed misogyny. Meters (talk) 02:09, 17 March 2022 (UTC)

message: Since this is semi-protected, I would like to note that the quotes by the judge are stated as fact and should be changed as they are extremely misinformed. The judge also said that interacting with one’s abuser and showing less than extreme animus towards them "seems out of harmony with the assaultive behaviour ascribed to him." Obviously, this is willful ignorance, considering this is MORE rather than less likely to be the case. As many should now know, we are most likely to KNOW our abuser. So his statements in the face of the comments by even the accused, dozens of survivors, and many more witnesses should in no way be presented as fact. 
I am frustrated that every page I have seen that is locked or semi locked is for an abusive or virulently bigoted individual and contains some misleading information that supports their cause. Elleoneiram (talk) 02:59, 22 April 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: @Elleoneiram I don't see the quote you mentioned in the article. I do see that the judge commented on the accusers interacting with one another. —C.Fred (talk) 03:02, 22 April 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: Yes that is not in the article lol. It’s mentioned in this: https://globalnews.ca/news/2595443/jian-ghomeshi-trial-former-cbc-radio-host-found-not-guilty-of-all-charges/. Sorry for the confusion. I wanted to show more of his comments in context. Elleoneiram (talk) 03:04, 22 April 2023 (UTC)
