Decades Later, Victim of Pedophile Priest Demands Justice By Claude Beaulieu CJAD October 21, 2011 http://www.cjad.com/CJADLocalNews/entry.aspx?BlogEntryID=10304649 A woman who says she and her sister were victims of a sex assault by two priests almost fifty years ago returned to her hometown of Rigaud today to demand justice. Fifty-six year old Margot Bussiere held up a sign in front of a private college in her childhood hometown of Rigaud, near quebec's boundary with ontario, and demanded justice for herself, for her sister and for all victims of pedophile priests. Bussiere was eight years old, and her sister, nine, when she says two priests from the college raped the two of them. Forty-eight years later, her sister lives with deep psychological scars and is pernmanently interned in a psychiatric institute. Margot has put her own life back together, but while she says she refuses to be a victim she still lives with the scars and that decades after the assaults, she still cries. Margot filed a criminal complaint against the two priests almost a year and a half ago. Her aim now is two-fold: to get other victims of pedophile priests to come forward, and to get closure by making sure her and her sister's assailants are charged and convicted despite any attempts by the church to cover for pedophile priests.
