Ontario Court Justice Marvin Zuker sentenced him to the maximum penalty for a summary crime of 18 months in prison, followed by three years probation. Since it began last February, the trial has become a cause célèbre for rape victims and their supporters, initially because Gray was an educated, well-spoken and unabashed witness. Once there, Gray said Ururyar forced Gray to perform oral sex and raped her. Gray received death and rape threats, she says. Let us not forget that rape is perpetrated as a weapon of war.”With respect to victim impact statements, “perhaps” they should be renamed “survivor impact statements,” Zuker said.
