A Vancouver bar owner has been convicted of sexually assaulting a 21-year-old woman while her mother, a friend of the accused, sat nearby. The judge ruled that the woman did not consent to the sexual contact and that the accused's version of events was 'bizarre'.
A Vancouver bar owner has been convicted of sexually assaulting a woman more than 40 years younger than him while her sometimes passed-out mother sat close by.
The judge said when the woman confronted Chow and said he had sexually assaulted her, he testified he felt “stunned, anger, hurt and wow.” He said he felt betrayed as he had treated the woman “properly.” “How much I hated it,” she said. “How much I wished that he was not touching me. How I wanted to get out of the bar.”“I am not attracted to him,” she testified. “He is much older than me. He was considered one of my mom’s friends and I wouldn’t ever have done that. That’s not who I am and I would much rather give consent to someone who is a lot closer to my age.”Chow again fondled her, the court heard.When she emerged, she found Chow with his genitals exposed.
Chow testified the daughter started the sexual contact. He also told the court he was conversing with the mother at the same time.
