Actress’s fawning emails to Ghomeshi result in explosive day in court
Mere hours after CBC star Jian Ghomeshi allegedly choked and slapped her, “Trailer Park Boys” actress Lucy DeCoutere expressed a desire to have sex with him and a few days later penned a hand-written letter to say “I love your hands.”
The stunning revelations at Ghomeshi’s heavily scrutinized sexual assault trial emerged Friday as the disgraced broadcaster’s defence lawyer confronted DeCoutere with numerous friendly and even fawning dispatches between the actress and the now 48-year-old Ghomeshi.
DeCoutere — one of three women complainants at Ghomeshi’s trial and the only one who can be identified — said that until Marie Henein presented it to her in court, she didn’t remember sending the email in which she expressed sexual desire for the radio star just hours after he had allegedly assaulted her.
She added that the email, and others that were racy, didn’t mean the alleged assault did not take place.
