Former Waterloo Regional Police Sgt. Caleb Roy has been found not guilty of sexual assault of a woman in October, 2010.
The woman s identity has been protected by a publication ban. Cases such as these where two people give two opposing versions of an event are the most difficult cases for a trial judge to assess, Justice Katherine Corrick told a virtual courtroom Friday.
No one, other than the two parties, knows for certain what happened that night more than a decade ago, she said.

The Crown and the defence agree an encounter took place but not about who is telling the truth in the sexual assault trial of suspended WRPS Sgt. Caleb Roy.
Closing submissions were heard via Zoom Tuesday before Ontario Superior Court Justice Katherine Corrick.
Waterloo Regional Police Sgt. Caleb Roy was charged with sexual assault after a woman said she accompanied Roy in October 2010 to what she thought would be a night out in Toronto. But instead she alleged Roy took her to his friend s condominium where Roy pulled her into the bedroom where he allegedly raped her.
