The Winnipeg Police have arrested Joseph Floyd Delaney from Lundar, in connection to multiple sexual assaults of children in the 1980s. Delaney, who is 65 now, met some, but not all of the children at a church theater group he ran.
He faces several charges including sexual assault, sexual interference, and invitation to sexual touching. All of the children were around 10 at the time of the assaults.
In December 2021, police were contacted by one of the survivors, and after opening an investigation two more came forward. The investigation is ongoing and anyone with information or who wishes to speak to investigators is asked to call the child abuse unit at 204-986-3296 or Crime Stoppers at 204-786-8477.
