A B.C. woman broke down in tears Monday as she described what she claimed was a sexual assault at the hands of a former Vancouver Canuck.
Asked by Crown counsel Alan Ip how she felt about what had happened, the complainant replied: “Very violated, broke and confused, distraught.”
The complainant initially met the former Canuck right-winger at the Calgary Stampede in July 2017 when she was 18 years old and exchanged contact information with him.Article content She said she would rather have hung out during the day rather than during the evening when she didn’t feel comfortable and was worried that in the evening she would be put in a “sexual situation.”
She said however that she followed Virtanen up to his hotel room and went out on the balcony to look at the view before he came up from behind her and put his hands on her, touching her and kissing her on the neck, making her feel “very uncomfortable.” The complaint said she repeatedly told Virtanen she didn’t want to have sex with him and broke into tears as she described how he penetrated her without a condom.
