Advocates for women’s rights in the province are expressing their outrage over the mistrial in the case of RNC Officer Doug Snelgrove.
Advocate Jenny Wright says she is outraged by the outcome, which she says sends a “disheartening message” to all survivors of sexual assault not to come forward.
She says we need to ensure “such silly slips such as a judge accidentally dismissing two of the wrong jurors in the wrong order does not put a victim through this kind of trauma ever again.”
