Default Man charged after ‘multiple sexual assaults’ at West Edmonton Mall waterpark

This has gotten a lot of talk today and havent seen it discussed here yet.
http://globalnews.ca/news/3235690/ma...all-waterpark/

Quote:
A 39-year-old man has been charged in connection with several sexual assaults that occurred at the West Edmonton Mall World Waterpark over the weekend.

Police were called to the waterpark at around 10:30 p.m. Saturday.

Officers allege a man followed and inappropriately touched six teenage girls while they were swimming at the waterpark.
Quote:
“It’s fairly shocking,” EPS spokesperson Scott Pattison said. “It’s involved and traumatized six individuals and their families.”

Pattison said all six girls were under the age of 16.

“The girls were very courageous in coming forward and talking to the lifeguard, that’s not always the case,” Pattison said.
Quote:
Soleiman Hajj Soleiman, a Syrian refugee and father of six, has since been charged with six counts of sexual assault and six counts of sexual interference.

The Edmonton Police Service Zebra Child Protection Section has taken over the investigation.

Many years ago I worked in a group home in Burnaby, we took the kids to Canada Games Pool for rec, one day a perfectly white looking non Syrian non refugee was in the kiddie pool pitching a tent watching some pre teen girls, one of the nice features of Canada Games pool was the work out area that looked over the pool that was mostly used by bikers in those days, one of my kids informed me there was a skin pooch in the kiddie pool, I informed the life guard and started to coral the pedo to get the cops in but a group of bikers decided that wasn't really appropriate and so I ended up having to hustle kids out of the way as they beat the bugger into a pulp.

But not a refugee so perhaps not worthy of comment

Creepy. Though we dont know his intent and up to that point he may have not committed any crimes.

Did he also grope 6 young girls?

Also, EPS believes there are more victims over and above the 6 who have come forward so far.

Needless to say, this guy should face deportation if he is convicted. No need for him to serve time in prison here.

Trust me what he was up to already was criminal, I supervised Sex Offenders long enough to know that, he may have been a bit slow or the like so who knows?, they damn near killed him though.

What's a skin pooch? A condom? I scoured urban dictionary.

Also agree that if he is guilty he should be deported

I doubt that they deport him, as soon as I read father of 6, there's no way they deport him without deporting his kids.

But I would expect a lengthy jail sentence, something along the lines of 4 months.

His kids have nothing to do with this. If it turns out he is guilty, he should forfeit any privileges of being in Canada and being a continuous threat to Canadians.

Deportation is a win-win, save money on incarnation and remove a threat from the country.

Nowwww I know why a homeless guy on the 3rd St LRT platform was losing his s*** and constantly calling someone a "f***ing goof" Thought it was a pretty tame insult at the time for someone who was so upset.

I doubt the government would want to split up families, plus if they do deport him and his family the news will be filled with the government deporting 6 kids back to Syria.

There's no chance they deport him.

Wow, this is utterly disturbing. And this "man" is a "father" of six children. I wonder how many of them are girls.... I hope Children's Services does something about this. It is terrifying, and I think everyone should know about it and ponder the reasons why someone would do such a thing. *Hint* Cases just like this have seen a massive spike recently in Germany and other European countries.

There have been a number of reported instances like this in Europe, as well.

I don't really know what to say other than it's utterly horrible. Is it an issue of culturally adapting to differing social norms?

Plenty of priests in this culture are pedohphiles so maybe they're adapting just fine?

I dunno, going back to the Liberalism and non Identity Group thing, my hope is that this is examined on an individual basis. This guy is a scum bag, and in my mind has forfeited his privilege of residing in our country after we took him and his family in. His individual circumstances, being a refugee, to me dictate that he should be deported but by no means should people feel that his actions are representative of the larger whole of Syrian refugees or other immigrants.
