0:00It's April 7. You're listening to Canada News today, AI-powered local news. I'm Corey with the story. A 62-year-old man named Richard Robert Manta just got convicted of sexually assaulting three vulnerable women at a rural spot east of Calgary. He also drugged one of them and got hit with assault with a weapon. On top of that, the judge found him guilty of making threats to a fourth woman. Meanwhile, charges against two other women got dismissed by Justice Judith Shriar. And for a seventh complainant, those were dropped earlier because she passed away during the long-core process. This all stems from a police probe three years back, targeting attacks on women in Calgary sex trade. Cops zeroed in on Manta after reports of drugging and assaults. The trial dragged on with the lays. Manta kept firing his defense lawyers and even had a stroke that slowed things down. With these convictions locked in, the focus now shifts to sentencing, offering a measure of justice for those impacted after years in the system.
