More than 40 years after he was first arrested for rape, fashion tycoon Peter Nygard appeared for a bail hearing by video at Winnipeg’s courthouse Tuesday as he faces extradition to the U.S. on a litany of sex trafficking charges.
Just a few minutes’ drive from the high school the 79-year-old attended, the courts are situated in Manitoba’s sprawling capital city where Nygard’s family once allegedly claimed he “owned” the cops.
