The Crown prosecutor questioned Eric Dejaeger’s credibility and character during his closing submission today in Iqaluit.
Dejaeger, 67, is on trial for dozens of charges of sex offences against children dating back to his time as a priest in Igloolik, Nunavut in the 1970s and ‘80s.
This morning, Crown Doug Curliss said Eric Dejaeger is a well-educated, relatively sophisticated person, who used his position of power as a priest to commit various criminal offences.
Curliss said Dejaeger cannot be trusted, and that he has a strong motive to lie.
