BATTLEFORD, Sask. – A former supervisor at a northern Saskatchewan residential school is going to jail after being sentenced on convictions for molesting several students in the 1960s.
Paul Leroux, who worked at the Beauval Indian Residential School, was sentenced to three years Thursday after being found guilty on 10 of 17 charges involving boys at the school.
His victims were angry over the sentence handed down in a Battleford courtroom.
“I feel so totally inadequate. I feel like my life is worthless for what the judge has given him — three years,” said one man outside court.
“With good behaviour he will be out in seven months. He will be out by next summer, while we have to live with what he has done to us.”
