Watching a program on Peter Nygard

Peter Nygard sentenced to 11 years for sexual assaults

These fuckers are evil rapists

When delivering his sentence, Superior Court Justice Robert Goldstein called Nygard a "sexual predator" and a "Canadian success story gone very wrong".
"He used his wealth and his power to commit four sexual assaults," Judge Goldstein said.
Nygard has been accused of using his influence and wealth to systematically assault and traffic women in both the US and Canada over a number of decades, when he was at the helm Nygard International, his global clothing design and manufacturing business.

For years, I would see a giant image of Nygard on his building in NYC’s Garment District. It displayed him as a swashbuckling playboy of sorts. Not being a fashionista, I had to look him up to be unimpressed. Hugely stupid display of ego.

Busting his ass is good justice.

By the way, his clothing? Meh.

ETA: While he was convicted of four sexual assaults, I’d be surprised if there aren’t more victims. Bastard.

These entitled rich rapists must pay.

He got a lot of help from the Bahamaian police and some persons in said government.
