Raynard court case resolved

Jake Raynards' life isn't on hold anymore. The 30 year old gay man was severely beaten in Thunder Bay last October in what his family said was a hate crime. However in the course of the police investigation Raynard himself faced 3 assault and weapons related charges. Raynard says in court this week the issues were resolved.    He says the 2 weapons charges were withdrawn and he plead guilty to assault and was given an absolute discharge.   Raynard received community support after the attack which included a rally at Waverly Park.
