Former top doctor of B.C.’s Interior Health region, Alberta’s North zone found guilty of child sex assault
Going over the evidence relating to events that took place near Grande Prairie between June 15, 2018, and July 31, 2020, Leonard said that the child and his parents were credible in their respective accounts of what transpired.This was particularly the case with the child, now 11, who was once so close with de Villiers that he was referred to as “uncle.
His testimony, she said, “was conscientious and careful” and she derived that conclusion from “his evidence as a whole.” The boy “consistently described the key details of the sexual events” despite not always having the vocabulary to explain them, particularly parts of the female and male anatomy. Throughout this part of sentencing, which was webcast, de Villiers could be seen shaking his head back and forth, seemingly as a denial of what was said.De Villiers, however, was less of a credible witness throughout the three-day trial, Leonard had said.“The accused defence consists of bare denial,” she said. “He denies having shown the complainant pornographic videos, touching the complainant sexually and inviting the complainant to touch him sexually.
In that message, de Villiers apologized for something he said that had never happened before, said it would never happen again and that he felt bad about whatever occurred.
