Alberta jury acquits army captain of sexual assault, other charges
ST. PAUL, Alta. – A jury in Alberta has found an army officer not guilty of sexual assault.
Capt. Malcolm Grace, who is 47, was also acquitted of other charges including assault and uttering threats.
A woman, who cannot be identified, alleged during the trial in St. Paul that Grace attacked her several times between 2009 and 2016 in Edmonton and Wainwright, Alta.
Grace was arrested in 2016 while working as a staff officer at the Canadian Manoeuvre Training Centre near Wainwright.
A military spokeswoman says Grace will remain at the training centre.
She says his supervisors will be recommending that an ongoing administrative review be closed due to the acquittal.
