One of Paul Leroux’s sex abuse victims says he won’t ever forgive the former residential school supervisor.
The man, who was a student at the Beauval Indian Residential School in northern Saskatchewan during the 1960s, was one of several students Leroux was found guilty of sexually abusing.
At Leroux’s sentencing hearing Thursday in Battleford, the man said he can’t forgive Leroux, now 73, because he still denies what he’s done.
The Crown argued for an 11-year-sentence, but Leroux, who acted as his own lawyer, said that was too harsh for crimes that happened so long ago.
