Back to the clubhouse. It's well into the evening when someone new arrives at the door. A surprise visitor. Another member of the club.
She doesn't know any of these women. They've never met nor spoken. I had just spoken to her the day before for the first time. She got in touch with me after she found out about my investigation. This woman fills in a crucial piece of the puzzle. Knowing she'd be welcome, I threw out the invitation. And here she is.
Siobhan attended Port Credit Secondary School, also in the greater Toronto area. It was the music teacher's first official post. Siobhan sang with his band in the mid-1970s. She later became a teacher herself. I taught drama, acting, singing, dancing. Siobhan is blonde and fit, wears a casual summer dress. She drove about 35 kilometres to get here to meet the others.
Anne-Marie and Chiffon quickly discover a familiar pattern.
Yeah, longer sentences.
Yeah. She means two alleged victims of sexual abuse at her school, same music teacher. The women in this room encountered the teacher at three different schools over a 13-year period. They compare notes.
Siobhan and her friend at Port Credit Secondary School. They came first. 70...
Then Jeannie, Jackie, Ali, and there are others we know about at Markham High.
I do have a growing list of women who say they were sexually harassed or assaulted as teen students by the same teacher. I've spoken to more than a dozen alleged victims. But not everyone wants to speak publicly about what they went through. I understand that. Others will eventually join the club, but it'll take some time. Siobhan has taken a big step just coming here.
And she's asked me to only use her first name. Siobhan was younger than the others when it happened to her.
So, you know.
Chiffon says she was molested by the teacher after she turned 14.
Exactly.
She's trying to make light of a heavy topic. But Chiffon says it was a loss of innocence.
It's been hours since the coffee cake. They've shared stories all day. And everyone needs to eat. We have food, even more important.
Well, I microwaved it myself.
The women fill their plates, find a seat around the table.
Anne-Marie has been waiting patiently for a lull in the conversation. She has a question for Siobhan. Anne-Marie wants to know about something rumoured to have happened at Port Credit Secondary School when Siobhan was there.
The teacher told Anne-Marie the punch story right after her band trip to Belleville at the start of what she calls his abuse and what he calls consensual sex. How many times has Anne-Marie repeated that story about the punch?
For Chiffon, it explained the music teacher's sudden departure from her school. She says the teacher had been touching her sexually.
