New: Court documents obtained by @TSN_Sports and @CTVNationalNews confirm that Dillon Dube, Alex Formenton, Carter Hart, Michael McLeod, and Cal Foote have all been charged with s***** a*****.
"Dillon Dube, around June 19, 2018, in the city of London, in the Southwest region, committed a s***** a***** against E.M., contrary to section 271 of the Criminal Code of Canada."
The document repeats the same allegation against each of the other four players and indicates that McLeod also faces an additional charge for "having participated in the offense."
All players have stated that they will plead not guilty, and the allegations against them have not been tested in court.
The players were arrested on January 26, and their next court appearance is set for February 5, according to the documents.
