By Amelia WadeA junior Navy officer who alleges she was sexually violated by a superior says he pinned her down and told her: "Shh, just let it happen." Crown prosecutor Alysha Mcclintock alleges Ward then forced himself into the woman's bed without her consent and sexually violated her. After four or five sets of 60 seconds, another officer from the woman's course came into the cabin. The woman told the court Ward recoiled and let her go so she leaped out of the bed. She told the other officer to leave, then had a shower and changed her sheets because she wanted to feel clean.
