The jury's verdicts were not unreasonable because the defence evidence did not exclude the possibility that the offending occurred in the intervals when witnesses were not observing the lounge; the jury was entitled to accept the complainant's account; the Crown's reference to counterintuitive expert evidence was a legitimate rebuttal of the improbability argument and was properly confined by the judge's directions.
