A proposito di questo titolo

In June 2011, Cindy Gladue, a 36-year-old Indigenous woman from the Sturgeon Lake Cree Nation, died in an Edmonton hotel room after suffering a catastrophic injury.

The physical facts of her death were never in dispute. What followed was a legal battle over how Canadian law defines consent, serious bodily harm, and criminal responsibility.
