Peter Nygard, the founder of one of Canada’s largest clothing brands, was found guilty Sunday on four counts of sexual assault, a court announced in Toronto.

The jury, which deliberated for five days, also acquitted the Finnish-Canadian Nygard on one count of sexually assaulting one of the women who testified at the seven-week trial, and one count of forcible confinement, according to Ontario’s Superior Court of Justice.
