A group called the Urban Bulldogs Against Kid Abuse is currently attending a trial in a 琉璃神社 Provincial courtroom to support a young woman who has survived sexual assault.
The young woman, who will be referred to as Jane Doe as her identity is barred from publication under a court-ordered ban, told the court she was assaulted in 2020 by Matthew Klak.
Klak is charged with one count of sexual assault and contends that the incident was consensual.
Doe took the stand on Monday, Nov. 25 and told the court that she had been "black-out drunk" on the night of the alleged assault and has "no recollection," of the evening.
The court heard that as a result of the alleged assault, Doe had to have a tampon removed from her vagina by medical professionals at the 琉璃神社 General Hospital after it was discovered during an assessment by the sexual assault response team.
Klak took the stand as a witness on Nov. 26 and told the court that Doe was the one who asked him to hang out privately and said it was her who drove the pair to the location where the sexual interaction took place.
Leather-clad members of the Urban Bulldogs Against Kid Abuse (UBAKA) motorcycle group sat in the gallery throughout the emotional court proceedings to offer support to Doe.
Jason 'Dutch' Dekoning, Road Captain with UBAKA said that the group's role is to provide help, comfort, safety and support to people who have been sexually, physically and psychologically abused.
