  • Analyzing the Hockey Canada trial [3]
    Sep 19 2025

    [Part 3 of 4] In Part 3, w unpack the confusing timeline of Room 209 and the contradictions at the heart of the case. A clear pattern emerges: the five accused players were repeatedly given the benefit of the doubt, while E.M. was scrutinized and cast as unreliable.


    Thanks for your patience with this deep-dive series and for allowing us the time to give it the attention it deserves. Part 4 will wrap this series up, and then we’ll be back to our usual schedule.


    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.


    *Additional content warning: Graphic details of sexual acts.

  • Analyzing the Hockey Canada trial [2]
    Sep 7 2025

    [Part 2 of 3} The Hockey Canada verdicts are final, but the story isn’t. Kristi Lee looks closely at the most talked-about evidence, how it was reflected in the written decision, and how that shaped public opinion. Thanks for your patience!


    In this episode:

    • The flaws in the first police investigation - and why it didn't result in charges
    • Michael McLeod's instagram exchange with EM the day after the hotel room incident
    • The "group chat" six days later that appears to show the hockey players trying to get their stories straight
    • The series of debacles that resulted in this jury trial switching to judge-alone
    • Survivors JB and Kelly Favro return to share their perspectives about watching this case unfold not only as survivors — but also as massive hockey fans.


    *Additional content warning: Details of sexual acts.


    PLEASE NOTE: This series does not dispute the judge’s verdicts. Instead, it highlights a deeper truth: contradictions and inconsistencies existed on both sides, yet the accused players’ accounts were overwhelmingly accepted while the victim-complainant's was dismissed as “not credible or reliable.” Regardless of verdicts, our position is that this framing was both unnecessary and harmful — and its impact reaches far beyond the trial itself.

  • Update on the Hockey Canada series (and thanks for your patience)
    Aug 24 2025

    Kristi Lee gives an honest and transparent update about why Part 2 of the Hockey Canada trial is taking longer than expected.


    Thank you so much for your patience and understanding as we take the time to cover this case with the care and thoroughness it deserves.


    In the meantime:


    Read JB's Op-Ed in the Globe and Mail, and on our website: "When aggressive tactics are praised as legal strategy, it’s survivors like me who pay the price."
