2:38Now PlayingThe sexual assault trial of five former Canadian world junior hockey players in London, Ont., includes testimony from E.M., the complainant in the case whose identity is under a publication ban. CBC’s Katie Nicholson spoke to psychology and psychiatry researchers — not involved with the trial — about how trauma’s effects on the brain can impact memory and court testimony.
Court proceedings include details of alleged sexual assault and might affect those who have experienced sexual violence or know someone who's been impacted by it. For support in your area, you can look for crisis lines and local services via the Ending Violence Association of Canada database.
