We are families fighting for our right to raise our children here is the collection of videos from today's Rally outside the London Ontario CAS Office video
Dave Fagon had two degrees and had worked in group homes for 15 years. He was a respected group home worker in the eyes of the other workers and society. He was a predator in the eyes of the group home kids. He started his social work career in around the year of 1998. He was charged with SEXUAL ASSAULT in 2012 after an incident in 2008 he was alleged to have fondled a female co - worker at a group home during the night shift. In 2013 he plead guilty to the lesser charge of assault. THAT is the "I Am Your Children's Aid" poster that Lillian Christine Sorko is holding during that rally.
A city man has been given a suspended sentence concerning an incident involving a female coworker at a Copper Cliff group home almost five years ago.
Dave Fagon, who had been charged with sexual assault in the 2008 incident and had been scheduled for a one-day trial in the Ontario Court of Justice on Thursday, opted to plead to the lesser charge of assault.
Judge Melanie Dunn accepted a joint submission from the Crown and defence lawyer John Recoskie that Fagon, 40, receive a suspended sentence and one year probation. The probation order includes a condition that Fagon have no contact with the victim.
"I would be loathe to interfere when counsel came to me with a submission," Dunn told the court. "It's a plea, not an early one, but it is indicative of remorse. It is not lost on me the predicament you have already received with the suspension of your career."
The court heard Fagon and a female co-worker were working the night shift at a group home in Copper Cliff sometime from 5 to 6 a.m. Oct. 19 when Fagon, who was on a couch in the living room, went over to the other couch where the woman was lying and laid on top of her.
Fagon fondled the woman, touched her breasts and kissed her for a few minutes before he was pushed off.
The woman immediately reported the incident to the employer and it was dealt with internally. Fagon was fired.
The incident was not reported to Greater Sudbury Police until the spring of 2012. Fagon was then charged with sexual assault.
Fagon, who had no prior record, did not address the court.
Recoskie told the court Fagon, who is originally from Jamaica, has two degrees, has two children with joint shared custody, and had worked in the social work field for 15 years.
"As a result of the charge, that career has come to an end," said the lawyer. "He will almost certainly never be employed in the social work field again. This conviction, of itself, is very serious to him ... This has been a very serious life-altering event for him."
Recoskie said Fagon now works in the restaurant sector.
