Former commanding officer in Wainwright found guilty

Guilty is the verdict in a sexual assault case of a former commanding officer at an Armed Forces base in Wainwright. A military judge found that Major David Yurczyszyn groped a woman’s breast  almost two years ago. At the beginning of his court martial this week, Yurczyszyn pleaded guilty to a charge of drunkenness under the National Defence Act. But he denied grabbing the woman at a party on Remembrance Day in 2012. Yurczyszyn was removed from the top job at Wainwright after he was charged last year, and transferred to army headquarters in Ottawa.
