Default Fashion mogul Peter Nygard arrested on historical sex abuse charges

[The 79-year-old was arrested on Monday
on an indictment supported by 57 women.]


[Canadian fashion mogul Peter Nygard
has been arrested on suspicion of sexually
abusing young women and girls over
a period of 25 years.
Mr Nygard, 79, was arrested on Monday
over claims he used his brand to lure alleged victims
to his Bahamas estate with promises
of jobs in modelling and fashion.

The indictment claims he capitalised on
the Nygard Group's influence,
using its employees, funds, and resources
to recruit girls under the age of 18.]



You Dirty Old Bastard.

...so Jeffrey Epstein again...

According to US authorities, Mr Nygard used his company's influence and resources "to recruit and maintain adult and minor-aged female victims for Nygard's sexual gratification and the sexual gratification of his friends and business associates".
The court documents allege the fashion mogul targeted women and girls under 18 from disadvantaged economic backgrounds who sometimes had a history of abuse.
He is accused of trying to control his victims "through threats, false promises of modelling opportunities and other career advancement, financial support, and by other coercive means, including constant surveillance, restrictions of movement, and physical isolation".
US authorities allege Mr Mygard used some past victims to help him recruit more women for him to have sex with, including at events on his properties in Marina del Rey, California, and in the Bahamas.
Mr Nygard "sometimes forcibly assaulted" women who did not comply with his sexual demands, authorities allege.
A lawyer representing 57 women who have filed a lawsuit against Mr Nygard claiming sexual abuse said in a statement that "we are relieved that some degree of accountability is hopefully forthcoming, but we would be remiss if we did not state that this is something that should have been done decades ago".

It makes me wonder how many more cases there are of things like this that we just don't know about.
