Legally, the verdict was correct. I still believe Gomeshi did what he was accused of. In a situation where there is a power imbalance (does't have to be sexual assault) the victim is screwed. It is wrong for McLachlin to tell victims it has to be this way. The legal system is skewed. The principal of reasonable doubt is noble but the reality is that victims are at an UNFAIR disadvantage. Telling them to suck it up is wrong.
