I was just reading up more about the case though... The girl did not report the crime to the police so this is not a criminal case, it is a civil suit filed in.... Kelowna, blows up the whole thing/leak to the media through that Twitter account. Pretty meticulous planning for someone who is the victim. I read the first half of your post thinking, "huh, I guess people can change and be better" then I read the second half when you are still doubting the victim... Nevermind.

Nevermind. Yea sorry about being open minded and looking at each fact separately instead of being stubbornly fixated on a conclusion on case that hasn't even gone to trial.

There's an ongoing investigation, but I don't think there's anything that would prevent him from traveling. Although, yes, police are investigating, I think people are making a lot of assumptions into what's going on. That said, his best path may very well be, AHL or ECHL for the moment. Ah, you’re correct. I thought I’d read somewhere he had actually been charged. Looks like I was mistaken, all just allegations still being investigated. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With this many accusers it’s very likely there will be criminal charges. Police have a lot to investigate. I can’t find any link for this, any idea where it’s being reported, Alf.?

I keep seeing KHL brought up as an option, but I always assumed if you’ve been charged with a criminal act, you’re not allowed to leave the country. I’m no lawyer though, maybe someone in the know can shine some light on this? There is no formal charges 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was a link earlier in the thread, to Marker Zone (never heard of it myself) with an article that referenced the survivorstories Instagram.

It’s possible that he can’t even enter the United States at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully not anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

N4ZZY Posted August 10, 2021 Share Posted August 10, 2021 I’d be really surprised for any NHL team to be signing Virtanen during these allegations. It’s pretty serious stuff. Could very well alienate a portion of their fans. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
