They're seeking warrants to search a hotel room and the offices of law firms conducting investigations into the alleged assault, as well as a warrant to retrieve thumb drives containing text messages between players on the team.
The alleged gang rape occurred the night of a Hockey Canada gala June 18, 2018. Canada had won the gold medal at the world junior hockey championship in January in Buffalo. The repercussions continued throughout the summer and into the fall with the entire board replaced by new one Saturday.
