The adopted son of the Canadian Prime Minister - 34 -year -old Michel Chretien - was tried for rape of a minor girl. The story occurred in July 2002 in the city of Yellow -Afire, the Air Force television and radio company reports.

In the courtroom, the girl barely restrained her tears, trying to recall the details of that night. The attempts were not very successful, but not only because of the embarrassment of the girl - the victim admitted that at the time of rape was very drunk.

She remembers exactly that on July 15, 2002, about noon, she was going to school, but then Michelle Chretien called and asked if she wanted to drink. The girl was not opposed. According to the Air Force, it was addicted to the drink from the age of 11 and by the age of 18 there were already three whole programs for treatment for alcoholism. A couple more people joined the company, went to the store together, bought beer and vodka, then took a taxi and went home to one of her friends .

As the girl was in the apartment of the premiere son, she does not remember, but sex, according to her, exactly took place. She demanded to stop everything, but then - again, failure in memory. I woke up in Michel’s bed, the clothes were lying on the floor. Quickly collected things, dressed and went to her - home and immediately went to bed. “I was still drunk,” the victim admitted to the court.

Prime Minister Jean Chretien and his wife Elin prepared an official statement in connection with the trial: they are very upset by what happened to their son. Michelle Chretien himself the accusation of raping a minor did not recognize himself, considering himself innocent.

And today, according to the CanadianCBC News , the jury, having heard the parties, issued a verdict in this case. The adoptive son of Canada Prime Minister Michelle Chretien is recognized as innocent.
