A sexual assault charge against “Trailer Park Boys” actor Mike Smith is dismissed in a Nova Scotia court, according to multiple outlets. A three-day trial was scheduled to begin, but Crown prosecutors decline to present evidence against him.
Smith is best known for playing Bubbles on the Canadian comedy series. The charge relates to an alleged incident that occurred nearly nine years ago, and Smith previously pleaded not guilty to one count of sexual assault. The reporting differs mainly in emphasis: some outlets describe the start of the scheduled trial before the dismissal, while others focus directly on the outcome and dismissal of the charge.
Overall, the common account across sources is that the matter does not proceed to trial because the prosecution does not present evidence, resulting in the case being dismissed in Nova Scotia.
