While jury deliberated in Toronto, news broke that the Canadian rock musician had been charged with another sexual assault
The Canadian rock musician Jacob Hoggard has been found guilty of violently raping a young woman, but acquitted of sexually assaulting a second – all while facing a new, third charge of sexual assault.
In that case, the woman testified that she and Hoggard connected on Tinder and that she knew she was meeting up with him in Toronto to have sex, but that she did not consent to the events that transpired. The jury acquitted Hoggard of two other charges – sexual touching of a minor and sexual assault causing bodily harm – relating to a younger accuser.
She testified that shortly after turning 16, she met Hoggard in a Toronto hotel room where he raped her orally and vaginally, and attempted to rape her anally. The jury did not convict him on these charges.
