Six-goal second half from Zach Manns leads Sask. Rush to comeback victory
1h ago
Rush turned an 8-3 fourth quarter deficit into a 9-8 victory in its home opener.
A former Regina gymnastics coach accused of sexually assaulting one of the female gymnasts he was coaching has been acquitted.
Marcel Dubroy, 71, was found not guilty in Regina Court of King’s Bench on Friday of one count of sexual assault and one count of sexual touching. Three other charges were stayed in September.
When Dubroy was arrested in June of 2019, Regina police alleged he had committed the offences between Jan. 1, 2002 and April 30, 2008, when the victim was in her teens.
The Regina police first received a report of the alleged sexual assault in November of 2018 from the Ottawa Police Service, which took the original complaint. The victim, who is now in her 30s, alleged her gymnastics coach had sexually assaulted her over a number of years.
The investigation led Regina police officers to Smithers, B.C., where Dubroy was living.
Dubroy was suspended by Gymnastics Canada in May of 2019 for what it called “alleged Code of Ethics and Conduct violations.” That suspension was imposed after the police investigation began.
