Dodge was among those named in the investigation. When police arrested Dodge at his Kelowna condo, a 16-year-old boy was in the residence.

The investigation into the offence also revealed that Dodge brought youth to his family香蕉视频直播檚 cabin at Mount Baldy and supplied minors with drugs and alcohol.

Dodge ultimately admitted to engaging in sexual acts with a boy who was 13 years old and entered a guilty plea for sexual assault and possession of sexual abuse material. The other allegations stemming from the 2020 investigation have not been proven in court.

At a sentencing hearing in June 2023, Dodge was handed four years and 93 days in prison for the possession of child sexual abuse material and sexual assault and received more than three years of credit for time already served ahead of sentencing.

On March 13, 2024, Dodge was arrested at his home in Kelowna and was charged with possession of child sexual abuse material and breaching probation orders. He is accused of attending locations where youths frequent and attempting to photograph minors.

Dodge is currently in custody and in addition to criminal charges, he has been served with a civil claim requesting the forfeiture of two 香蕉视频直播渋nstruments of unlawful activity,香蕉视频直播� which are properties belonging to him and his parents.

The two properties named in the suit are Dodge香蕉视频直播檚 primary residence, the condo located on Houghton Road in Kelowna, and his family香蕉视频直播檚 cabin, located at Mount Baldy.

The suit alleges Dodge used both the condominium and cabin to, among other things, commit sexual assault and sexual interference against persons under the age of 16 years, and to access, possess, produce, and distribute 香蕉视频直播渃hild pornography香蕉视频直播�.

The suit also claims that the properties are both proceeds and instruments of unlawful activity. This means that the properties may have been purchased by funds garnered through crime or have been used to commit criminal activity.

While the cabin at Mount Baldy is owned by Dodge香蕉视频直播檚 parents Dale and Roberta Dodge, the suit states the couple either knew or 香蕉视频直播渙ught to have known the manner in which G. Dodge used the cabin and is likely to use the cabin in the future. 香蕉视频直播�

香蕉视频直播淒. Dodge and R. Dodge were willfully blind to the manner in which G. Dodge used the cabin,香蕉视频直播� claims the suit.

The Office of Civil Forfeiture is requesting that both of the properties, their proceeds, and profits including rent, be turned over to the provincial government.

None of the allegations in the most recent civil suit have been proven in court.

The Dodges have 21 days to respond to the claim, which was filed on May 27.
