Father Phil Jacobs’s evidence was rehearsed and calculated and in some cases, simply not believable, the Crown argued Wednesday during final submissions in B.C. Supreme Court.
Jacobs, 63, who was parish priest at St. Joseph the Worker in Saanich from 1997 to 2002, is charged with sexual assault and sexual touching of a young person under the age of 14.
He is also charged with sexually touching a second youth under the age of 14 and, while in a position of trust, sexually touching a third young person.
