I think the Crown messed this case up.

I don't agree that the Judge went farther than she needed to.
The facts and findings do need to be set out, for both transparency and appealability.
Most decisions I get have references to credibility of witnesses, especially in diametrically opposing positions, as was the case here.
I do agree the Crown messed up.
