But a three-member Alberta Court of Appeal panel this week took a different view of the video recording, in which the female is slapped and physically degraded as three men gang rape her.
Justice Brian O Ferrall called Fanning and El-Sakaan s actions barbaric.
O Ferrall said no matter what Sara did or did not consent to, the pair are criminally responsible for the savage cruelty they inflicted upon [her].
Brooker has since retired, so Fanning and El-Sakaan will go before a new judge to be sentenced. A date for that will be set at the end of this week.
To hear three of the province s top judges recognize the incident as sexual assault was life-changing news, said Sara.
Video exceedingly difficult to watch : judge

Gov. DeSantis signs online sales tax planâ via Renzo Downey of Florida Politics â DeSantis has signed the online sales tax bill into law, answering the question of whether he would act on the bill or let it roll into law without his John Hancock. An estimated $1 billion in revenue would come from the new enforcement of sales taxes technically already owed on purchases Floridians make from out-of-state sellers, but which few Floridians pay. DeSantis had until midnight to sign or veto the bill into law or else it would have gone into effect without his signature. Lawmakers sent him the bill on April 12. He waited until one hour left in the day Monday to send the alert that he had signed the measure. DeSantis never signaled his support for the plan. If anything, he voiced his opposition.
