Frank Stronach found guilty on two charges related to two women

The judge convicted the 93-year-old billionaire on two of five remaining charges after finding one complainant credible and another unreliable.

  • On Friday, Superior Court Justice Anne Molloy found billionaire Frank Stronach guilty of sexual assault and indecent assault involving two complainants in a Toronto courtroom.
  • Stronach, 93, originally faced 12 charges involving seven women, but prosecutors withdrew one charge and agreed he should be acquitted on four others as the trial progressed through spring.
  • One woman testified Stronach groped her at his condo after dinner in the early 1980s, recalling he acted as a "fatherly mentor" beforehand; another described a 1977 incident at his apartment following a lobster dinner at Rooney's.
  • Sentencing for the two convictions is scheduled for September, while Molloy concluded insufficient evidence existed to convict Stronach on charges related to a third remaining complainant.
  • Stronach faces a separate trial on similar charges in Newmarket, Ont., which is now scheduled to take place next May, marking the next phase of legal proceedings against the businessman.
