The victims are all middle-aged men now: urban planners, computer scientists, technology salespeople — men with jobs, titles and families of their own.
But long-ago they were all boys — Grade 6 students who had the misfortune to fall under the gaze of a popular elementary school teacher named Brian Meilicke Moore, a predator who dazzled them with ski trips, beer and "games" played in the dark that scarred them for life.
According to the decision, the RCMP investigated Moore in 1988, but charges didn't come about until after Cooper began speaking publicly about his experiences in 2022.
