Overview
- Quebec Superior Court Justice Lyne Décarie stayed the 24-count case after the Crown and defence agreed Miller’s health prevents a fair trial.
- Medical evidence showed the 81-year-old Future Electronics founder is bedridden, largely non-verbal and requires constant medical care.
- Miller faced allegations of sexual misconduct against 11 complainants, most of whom were minors when the offences allegedly occurred between the 1990s and early 2000s.
- A class action lawsuit against Miller and alleged accomplices was authorized in January, and separate charges remain against Teresita Fuentes for procuring sexual services and another associate for luring minors.
- The police probe followed a 2023 Radio-Canada/CBC investigation into Miller’s alleged practice of recruiting underage girls for sex in exchange for money and gifts.
