Former St. John's Cathedral Boys' School teacher Kenneth MacKinnon Mealey has been convicted of sexual assault against multiple students but has now denied allegations of abusing the Manitoba man who is suing him for different claims of sexual violence. Mealey, who was convicted over 20 years ago, is named in a sexual abuse lawsuit filed in Manitoba's Court of King's Bench by a former student who claims Mealey sexually assaulted him in 1982.
However, Mealey's defence argues that he did not touch the plaintiff and denies any sexual acts with him. The lawsuit also names the Anglican Diocese of Rupert's Land, accusing it of knowing about Mealey's alleged sexual assaults and failing to take action to prevent them. The diocese has not yet responded to the lawsuit.
