A Langford man previously convicted of sexually assaulting female employees has been found guilty of breaching his conditions by having female employees.
Kyle Mostowy was under a condition not to employ a woman in his business or supervise a woman in any capacity after he won the right to a new trial following a conviction for sexually assaulting an employee.
He has been convicted in a previous trial of five counts of sexual assault against five female employees, resulting from incidents in 2010 and 2011. He received a three-year sentence in this case.
The Crown argued Mostowy employed or supervised two women, who were also, at different times, in a personal relationship with him.
Mostowy’s defence lawyer argued the women were “doing nothing more than helping out a friend and were not clearly being compensated for their efforts,” according to a decision by provincial court Judge David Silverman.
Silverman determined text messages between Mostowy and the women corroborated the women’s assertion that they had an employment relationship with Mostowy, leaving him “in no doubt that Mr. Mostowy interacted with both M.A and S.O. as his employees.”
