We've been telling you about it for the past few weeks, but a blood-curdling scandal has splashed across Hockey Canada, as Hockey Canada and the CHL officially released a settlement earlier this month with a woman who was allegedly sexually assaulted by eight players from the CHL and the 2017-2018 World Junior Hockey Championship gold medal team.

THERE'S NEWS

Veteran journalist Ken Campbell, who has been taking this case very seriously, has revealed some disturbing and sickening details:

"Scott Smith drops a bomb. He says that neither the London police nor independent investigators have been able to confirm the identity of the accused. Who the hell was doing this investigation? Inspector Clouseau?" - Ken Campbell

So we may never know the identity of the culprits. Talk about an awkward and sloppy job, according to several Internet users. Campbell continues:

"Scott Smith said the settlement was paid on behalf of Hockey Canada, the Canadian Hockey League and the eight "John Doe" players who were allegedly involved." - Ken Campbell

It gets worse:

"Hockey Canada took full responsibility and paid the settlement in this case on behalf of all defendants," said Smith. None of the eight players who were allegedly involved contributed to the settlement." - Rick Westhead

Recall the horrific story:

After receiving the final settlement, the woman agreed to drop all charges. Hockey Canada, the Canadian Hockey League, and the players involved were all named as "defendants" in the case.

The allegations in court revealed that:

"The complainant alleged that she was repeatedly assaulted while intoxicated in a hotel room following a Hockey Canada Foundation gala and golf event in June 2018."

Eight anonymous CHL players have been named in the case, as well as Hockey Canada and the Canadian Hockey League. We would like to advise you that the following details are extremely graphic:

"According to the lawsuit, the players ordered him to fondle their genitals and perform oral sex on them. The players also allegedly straddled the plaintiff while placing their genitals on her face, slapped the plaintiff on her buttocks, spit on her, ejaculated into and onto her, had vaginal intercourse with her, preventing her from leaving the room as she tried to escape."

"Throughout the assaults, the complainant felt an ongoing apprehension of imminent physical harm of a sexual nature."

"The actions of the defendants 'named here John Doe' instilled terror and fear in the plaintiff's mind. The John Doe defendants exercised total control over the plaintiff and isolated her from others. The number of men and the fact that they had brought golf clubs into the room further intimidated the plaintiff. As a result, the complainant acquiesced to their repeated sexual acts and their instruction to engage in them, but this in no way constituted valid consent under the law on the part of the complainant."

The complainant alleged that she was too drunk to give proper consent.

"At times, the complainant would cry and attempt to leave the room but was directed, manipulated and intimidated into staying, after which she was subjected to further sexual assaults," the suit states.

We should clarify that the settlement in this case does not amount to an admission of guilt by Hockey Canada and the Canadian Hockey League.
