Overview
- A Toronto judge found 93‑year‑old Frank Stronach guilty on two counts — one count each of sexual coercion and sexual harassment — in a verdict delivered on June 19, 2026.
- Prosecutors originally charged Stronach on 12 counts but narrowed the case so only five counts reached the verdict stage, where he was acquitted on three of those counts.
- Stronach maintained his not guilty plea and attended the hearings in person throughout the trial.
- Sentencing for the two convictions is set for September 17, 2026, and a separate jury trial to address other allegations has been scheduled for May 2027 and is expected to last about four weeks.
- The case has drawn wide attention because Stronach is the elderly founder of Magna International, multiple women across decades have come forward with accusations, and the long span of alleged incidents has complicated evidence and public reporting.
