A former Prince George teacher pleaded guilty Tuesday to gross indecency for maintaining a sexual relationship with a student he coached on the Duchess Park Secondary School girls basketball team.
According to an agreed statement of facts, Roderick Lyle Sauve carried on the relationship with Sandra Stobbe (nee Boughey) from September 1981 to June 1985, when she graduated from high school and enrolled in a small college.
Stobbe, who waived her right to a court-ordered ban on publication of her name, gave a victim impact statement in which she recounted the emotional and psychological burden of carrying a secret for 30 years.
