A Port Coquitlam man has been found guilty of several charges of underage sexual assault after a trial at New Westminster Supreme Court wrapped up last week.
Kevin Craig Thomas was charged with more than a dozen offences in February 2015 after a report of a sexual assault the previous December led to allegations involving a number of victims, who were also under 16 years old at the time. The allegations dated back to April 2014.
After a two-week trial earlier this summer Thomas was found guilty of nine charges, including three counts each of sexual assault and sexual interference of a person under 16, two counts of uttering threats and possessing a weapon for a dangerous purpose. Charges of possession of a controlled substance and unlawful confinement were dismissed.
Thomas will be back in court next month to schedule a sentencing date.
