A former Saskatoon massage therapist has been found guilty of sexual assault.

Kenneth Braun, 69, was found guilty of five historical sexual assaults against six female clients between 2010 and 2021 in Saskatoon. He was found not guilty on one of the charges at the Court of King’s Bench Thursday.

The 12-person jury took one day to come to its decision after it was given more than three hours of careful instructions and considerations on Wednesday from justice Krista Zerr before being sent to deliberate.

The two-week trial began on Nov. 3rd. The trial and all of the evidence presented is under a publication ban to not interfere with a future court date.

The Crown argued against Braun’s release into the community while he awaits sentencing, but Braun was able to leave court with his release order staying in effect.

The case is adjourned until Jan. 14 to schedule sentencing.
