RECAP | E.M. was ‘out of it’ leaving bar with 1 of the ex-world junior players, she says at sex assault trial![]() The decision to leave Jack’s bar with McLeodE.M. says she’s a person who has a hard time saying “no” because she doesn’t like upsetting others. At one point, she says she tried to go to the bathroom and sneak away from McLeod, but he walked her right to the bathroom. “I thought I could go to the bathroom, and regroup and sneak away, and not tell him ‘no’ and confront him, but he stayed close and walked me to the bathroom,” she says. She just accepted that since they’d been “close” all night, he wanted her to go to his hotel, and she was OK with that. At one point, he told her he wanted to take her home with him and “have fun with me,” E.M. says. McLeod ordered an Uber but it was taking time to get there, so “he just put us in the first cab he saw. He didn’t want to wait for the Uber,” she says. She was feeling “OK” with how it was unfolding, but adds it’s not something she would have done if she wasn’t drunk. “I just accepted that since we’d been close that night, it was fine, I’d go to the hotel.” It was easier to “go along with it than to say ‘no,’” she says. McLeod got out of the cab at the Delta without paying, so the cab driver told her to get him to cover the fare. We also see the surveillance footage of McLeod and E.M. walking into the Delta hotel together. Source link Posted: 2025-05-04 07:36:27 |
