Peter Nygard, Former Fashion Mogul, Found Guilty of Sexual Assault in Canada Court

Peter Nygard, the former fashion mogul, has been found guilty of four counts of sexual assault by a Toronto jury after a six-week trial. He was acquitted of one count of sexual assault and one count of forcible confinement. This is the first criminal conviction against Nygard, who also faces charges in the United States. He is expected to stand trial on charges of sex crimes in Montreal and Winnipeg. After the Canadian proceedings, he will be extradited to New York to face sex trafficking and racketeering conspiracy charges. Five women testified that they were sexually assaulted by Nygard between the 1980s and 2005.
