When a Kitchener (Ontario, Canada) man inadvertently discovered his teenage daughter’s diary in his basement, he was shocked to see it contained the name of a former elder at the family’s Kingdom Hall of Jehovah’s Witnesses.
The name Claude Martin was written in bold text, the Kitchener man told a judge yesterday at Martin’s trial for sexually assaulting that girl and another girl who attended Martin’s Jehovah’s Witnesses sect.
Martin, 76, allegedly touched the man’s daughter with his hand between January, 2001 and December, 2002. He allegedly touched the other girl with his penis between January, 1988 and December, 1989.
The man’s daughter testified that Martin touched her buttocks with his hand and put his finger on her vagina during a Saturday morning door-to-door sales visit to a home.
