    Apparently the charges were dismissed on the 1st of this month since the complainant didn’t have anyone to testify, including themselves.

      You have no idea how happy this would make me if my default setting of “all humans suck” didn’t suggest that maybe they were threatened by people to not show up.

        Because of the way the Canadian (I think?) courts work, there’s no way of knowing unless the complainant speaks out. Their only statement essentially said that they’re not willing to re-live the trauma.

        Apparently, in a previous arrest for domestic disturbance, he had the cops called on him by people who said they heard a troubling altercation. The alleged victim refused to press charges and released a statement saying that the two of them are just friends who had a very loud argument.

        While I’d love to believe that everyone is just trying their best, my faith in humanity is screaming fool me once…
