A jury contemplated the fate of a Peachland man accused of sexually assaulting two sleeping women overnight.

Shea Gardecki is facing two charges of sexual assault and one charge of break and enter with intent to commit an indictable offence for allegedly entering a home on Highland Drive North on Aug. 23, 2016 and sexually touching two women who were sleeping inside.

Crown counsel Patricia O香蕉视频直播橬eil said that the evidence clearly points to Gardecki as the man who perpetrated the crime, despite a lack of forensic evidence such as bodily fluid or fingerprints being left at the scene.

香蕉视频直播淣ot every crime scene is capable of offering that kind of evidence,香蕉视频直播� she said.

The house where the touching is alleged to have happened was a busy place where lots of young people spent time. When police went to the scene they noted that people were walking in and out of the house, picking things up and behaving as was to be expected given the act that they believe happened. What香蕉视频直播檚 more important, she said, is that Gardecki matched the description of the perpetrator and had the opportunity to do the act.

O香蕉视频直播橬eil also drew attention to an interview Gardecki had with police. While an RCMP officer asked him repeatedly about the crime, he denied knowledge of it.

He said he was drunk and didn香蕉视频直播檛 remember anything of the night.

香蕉视频直播淚n my normal state of mind I would never do anything like that. 香蕉视频直播� Girls can say anything they want,香蕉视频直播� Gardecki told a Mountie.

He then said that girls have a tendency to lie about events of that kind.

香蕉视频直播淕irls, they香蕉视频直播檙e like that you know, they freak out about anything 香蕉视频直播� If they don香蕉视频直播檛 like somebody they may do that too. They may say something more intense than what is happening,香蕉视频直播� O香蕉视频直播橬eil told the court.

香蕉视频直播淐onsider those statements. In the context of the repeated assertions that he didn香蕉视频直播檛 do it, he doesn香蕉视频直播檛 know what happened. That香蕉视频直播檚 a very odd thing to say. Why would he suggest that the girls are hysterical and exaggerating if they don香蕉视频直播檛 like somebody.香蕉视频直播�
