A mixed martial arts coach from Pitt Meadows, British Columbia has been charged with two counts of sexually exploiting a minor during training sessions.
The charges were announced by the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (PCMP), which began its investigation in October 2021 after receiving information that an MMA coach had allegedly sexually exploited a female youth during training sessions dating as far back to 2016.
The RCMP also collected witness statements which suggested that the accused was involved with other female gym members and that he also taught group self-defence classes throughout the Pitt Meadows community.
