The Five Hockey Players From the 2018 WJC Scandal Opt for a Trial By Jury
We've just found out that the five hockey players charged in the scandal have opted for a jury trial. This means we're looking at a wait of several months before a trial date is even set.
They also decided to be tried together and are determined to fight for their sake.
More from The Globe and Mail:
Five former members of Canada's 2018 world junior hockey team who have been charged with s***** assault will have a trial by jury, The Globe and Mail reports.
The players, whose request for a jury trial was granted Tuesday, will be tried together as a group.
It will be several months at least before a trial date is scheduled.
"Earlier this week, all five players selected a trial by jury and they are confident that jurors drawn from the community will decide this case fairly and impartially after hearing all the evidence and testimony," lawyers representing the accused players wrote Globe journalist Robyn Doolittle in a joint statement.
