Steve Wallace, a former mayor of Quesnel, was recently arrested in Victoria on alleged sexual assault charges.
An investigation into Wallace, who was running a driving school, was started back in September by the combined forces of ICBC and the Victoria Police Department after Wallace was accused of sexual harassment by dozens of the school’s former students on an Instagram page.
The accusers, most of which were teenagers when the alleged harassment happened, levied allegations of the now 72-year old Wallace of touching them in a manner that was not appropriate with some of the accusations dating as far back as the 1980’s.
The Victoria Police department issued a notice back on Friday that Wallace is required to go to court on November 25th and that he cannot make any kind of contact with any of his named accusers until that day.
