Former B.C. teacher pleads guilty to sexual exploitation and luring
- Kianuko Louie, who previously worked at Kootenay River Secondary School, admitted guilt on May 5, 2025, in Creston to two sex-related charges involving students.
- The offences originated from events that took place over the course of the 2022-23 academic year and followed an RCMP investigation in September 2023 based on claims made by two students.
- Louie, a 35-year-old from the Yaqan Nukiy community who was instrumental in the 2021 effort to rename the school formerly known as Prince Charles Secondary, faced six charges initially, among them offenses related to sexual misconduct and illegal material involving minors.
- The judge requested a pre-sentence evaluation that includes a Gladue analysis, addressing the historical and systemic challenges faced by Indigenous people, and providing guidance on appropriate sentencing.
- Louie will return to court on July 7, 2025, to set a sentencing date, with the report’s findings likely influencing the final outcome.
