Justice Denied, Again: Hockey Canada's Suspensions Reaffirmed The acquittal of four Canadian hockey players on sexual assault charges last year was a hollow victory for those who believed justice had been served.
The independent appeal board's decision to maintain their suspensions from Hockey Canada sanctioned programs has underscored the lack of accountability in this case.
Hockey Canada's code of conduct is clear: no tolerance for sexual assault. Yet, despite being acquitted by a court of law, these players are still facing disciplinary action.
