Courtroom shocked at Frost trial

NAPANEE — A key witness against David Frost, who says she was coerced into three-way sex with the former junior hockey coach over a period of six years, cannot recall anything resembling a third testicle.
The reference to a third testicle — or something that looked like it — shocked the courtroom this morning, dropped into cross-examination by defence lawyer Marie Henein. There has been no evidence that Frost actually has such a condition.
"A two-inch-by-two-inch-by-two inch plum-sized sac of blood that appears like a third testicle,'' Henein helpfully described it to the 28-year-old Crown witness.
"That's not a tiny mole. A third testicle would be hard to miss.''
The witness responded: "I never saw a third testicle.''
Yesterday, the witness told court she had participated in two-on-ones with Frost and her then hockey player boyfriend. This morning, she also agreed that she'd performed oral sex on Frost over those years, until her relationship with the player ended in 2001.
In earlier statements given to police, the witness described Frost's penis in rather precise detail, even wadded up some tissues to portray its length. But she never mentioned to investigators, or during direct examination, anything about this alleged oddity.
Under redirect questioning by prosecutor Sandy Tse, the witness maintained that it was difficult to see Frost's organ during those sexual episodes. "I didn't look. It was dark. When you're down there...I just didn't notice it.''
But the other details, about length and dimension, the witness continued, were more apparent to her sense of touch. "The size of the penis and all that, I could feel with my hands.''
Hammering away at the witness, defence lawyer Henein suggested the woman — who was 16 when these three-on-ones allegedly began — had invented the stories involving Frost. The witness strongly disagreed. "I'm not making this up. Why would I make this up?''
Henein further posited that the woman had a strong will of her own and was sexually adventurous; that she was never intimidated into having threesomes but they never occurred with Frost.
"It did happen and it happened for six years. I was controlled,'' the witness said.
But the witness agreed that she had behaved in a sexually exhibitionistic way on other occasions, when Frost was either not present or not involved in the activities.
On one occasion, at a party, the witness admitted that she had taken off her top, then three times spread her legs to reveal her vagina while being filmed by a video camera, at one point holding a beer bottle between her thighs.
She also admitted to performing oral sex on a woman with other people present, but not Frost.
"It was consensual.''
And the witness acknowledged that she had threesomes involving two hockey players with Frost nowhere in the vicinity.
"I made wrong choices.''
