She was left bleeding and with bruises, she said. The defence also indicated the woman told Hoggard she needed stitches in her vagina, which was false, and that she was going to contact a lawyer if he didn’t apologize. But she said she did not consent to what transpired in his hotel room. Hoggard texted her after she left the hotel, and about a day later, the woman sent him a message saying that he had raped her and asking to talk on the phone, she said.

She said Asselstine told her Hoggard had “done this to other people” and that she needed to go to the police. “I don’t remember saying that,” the complainant said. She told Hoggard it was “extremely embarrassing” to go to a doctor because she needed stitches in her vagina and said she was going to contact a lawyer. “I don’t feel like there was a moment where that could be, you know, the result,” Hoggard said in the call when she told him about the stitches. The complainant said she now understands that would be sexual assault but didn’t at the time, and still thought they would have consensual sex in the second hotel room. Savard asked the complainant if she thought having a written apology from Hoggard would give her “power” over him and force him to talk to her. “But I was, absolutely.” “You just pushed me like to the point where it was just so painful.” The complainant agreed. On Wednesday, Hoggard’s defence lawyer Megan Savard played a recording of a 15-minute phone call between Hoggard and the complainant that she suggested was made two days after the alleged sexual assault. And it seemed like we were entering, you know, a very agreeable situation.” I really thought you felt like that,” Hoggard said.
