VANCOUVER A former Mission school teacher and retired CFL kicker has been charged with sexual assault, and police are asking the public for witnesses and further information. Donald Alan Sweet is facing a total of seven charges: Four counts of sexual interference, two counts of sexual assault and one count of assault, Mission RCMP said in a news release Saturday. The charges stem from an investigation into offences that allegedly occurred between 2007 and 2008, police said, adding that two former students had come forward in February 2020 to make allegations about Sweet s past conduct. One woman alleged that she had been assaulted, while the other reported having been sexually assaulted, police said. Both incidents occurred when the women were students in the Mission School District, police said, adding that one allegedly took place in the district and the other allegedly occurred at a conference centre near Chilliwack.
