Three girls were rescued by police in Lethbridge from a forced confinement situation in which one of the girls was allegedly drugged and pimped out to several men over multiple days.
The Lethbridge Police Service said on Tuesday it has charged a man with unlawful confinement, sexual exploitation and human trafficking in connection with multiple incidents where vulnerable girls were targeted and sexually assaulted....
Atoa, who police said has been in custody since his arrest in mid-December, was granted bail following a court hearing on Monday. He is anticipated to be released from custody Tuesday on several conditions.
But, he was not out long. 1/14/26 Calgary Herald:
About 30 minutes after his release from custody, an accused Lethbridge sex offender was arrested for breaching his release order conditions, police said Wednesday.
Skye Atoa, 50, who faces charges of sexual assault, sexual exploitation and human trafficking, was granted bail and released from custody Tuesday afternoon.
After being released, Atoa was required to go to a court-ordered residence. However, after he was dropped off, police said he made “no attempt to comply with the requirements” and instead went to a store.
“Through proactive investigation, police observed the subject in the store’s perfume aisle in very close proximity to a young female and he was immediately arrested,” said Lethbridge police in a Wednesday news release.
Looks like he lasted half an hour out on bail, and was re-arrested for breach of bail conditions while trying to pick up another girl in the perfume aisle of a department store.
