Author Steven Galloway concludes testimony at Vancouver defamation trial
- On Thursday, author Steven Galloway concluded his testimony in his Vancouver defamation trial, where he alleges unproven sexual assault accusations destroyed his career.
- The University of British Columbia fired Galloway after public allegations surfaced in 2015, though a report by retired Supreme Court judge Mary Ellen Boyd concluded the claims were unsubstantiated.
- His wife, Katie Wagner, testified the accusations placed Galloway on 72-hour suicide watch in 2015, and the firestorm has harmed their four children and family finances.
- During the proceedings, Galloway faced questions from defendant Glynnis Kirchmeier, while at least nine other defendants have settled out of court or issued apologies.
- Supreme Court Justice Neena Sharma indicated the trial will likely take 20 days, with Ronna Syed, a producer for the CBC program 'Fifth Estate,' expected as the next witness.
