The Crown has indicated it will seek a sentence of up to 28 years, while the defence is expected to argue for a shorter term, CBC said. Mousseau is to be sentenced later this year once post\u2011conviction assessments are complete.<\/p>\n
Previously, a report detailed how the culture at the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA)<\/a> suggests many women are far from being free of sexual harassment<\/a>.<\/p>\n Exploitation of students and minors<\/p>\n Court heard that at the time of the offences, Mousseau worked as a support worker and Indigenous way of life school worker in the Seven Oaks School Division and the Winnipeg School Division. CBC reports that his conduct involved two 17\u2011year\u2011old girls he met through his work, as well as other minors he contacted or recorded outside school settings.<\/p>\n One survivor told police she first sought him out in February 2024 for support while grieving the deaths of two family members, according to an agreed statement of facts read in court and reported by CBC. She said she began spending more time with him at school, including after hours, before the relationship became sexual and he drove her to his home, where they smoked marijuana and had intercourse.<\/p>\n The agreed facts state that Mousseau began texting her frequently, \u201ccommenting on her physical attributes and sharing plans with her for their future together,\u201d CBC reported. She later told police that he \u201cmanipulated her, used her spirituality and sacred parts of her culture, and ultimately that he \u2018broke\u2019 her,\u201d according to CBC\u2019s account of the court document. For HR professionals, these details highlight how trusted \u201csupport\u201d roles can be used to groom vulnerable young people and the importance of strict boundaries and oversight.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Crown has indicated it will seek a sentence of up to 28 years, while the defence is…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":623808,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[194296],"tags":[49,48,233856,233399,36646,22073],"class_list":{"0":"post-623807","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-winnipeg","8":"tag-ca","9":"tag-canada","10":"tag-how-can-employers-address-sexual-harassment-in-the-workplace","11":"tag-matthew-mousseau","12":"tag-sexual-harassment","13":"tag-winnipeg"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/623807","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=623807"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/623807\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/623808"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=623807"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=623807"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=623807"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
