A married father of five has been found guilty of kidnapping and sexually assaulting a 12-year-old Peterborough girl.
Stanley Tippett, 33, was arrested August of 2008 after the girl was found half-naked behind a school in Courtice, some 70 kilometres from Peterborough.
Tippett was found guilty today of all seven counts he was facing, including kidnapping, sexual assault and sexual interference.
He had testified that he came across a group of young drunken girls in south-end Peterborough and that two of them, including the 12 year old, got into his van.
Tippett told the court that minutes after dropping off the older girl he was carjacked by two men at gunpoint and ditched in the country.
The Crown argued that there was no truth in Tippett’s testimony about the carjackers.
