He is the Canadian fashion tycoon Peter Nigard, whose money and power have nourished him into a demon, reaching out to countless young girls.
As a clothing merchant, how did Nygard become the "land snake" who ruled the Bahamas?
After decades of impunity, how did his heinous crimes come to light?
First, the self-made fashion tycoon
Nygard came from a humble background, having followed his parents from Finland to Canada as a child, and his family was poor. Nygard's parents raised him by selling bread to help him finish college. After graduation, Nygard had the idea of starting a clothing business, taking out a loan from the bank and investing all his savings to rent a workshop and make women's jeans. A few years later, Nigard's business grew, and he took over an entire garment factory and established his own fashion group.
Due to the fashionable style and affordable price of the Nygard brand, it is mainly sold in department stores and supermarket chains. This was very much in line with the demand for clothing at that time, and Nygard made a lot of money. The fashion group is growing stronger, with headquarters in canada's capital, more than 170 stores in North America, and more than 6,000 clothing retail stores. At the time, Nigard's personal assets were as high as $900 million, and he was a well-known and wealthy businessman in Canada.

In the 1980s, Nigard bought large tracts of land in the Bahamas and built a luxury 14,000-square-meter complex of villas here. The entire villa complex is decorated in a Mayan style, with a luxurious and gorgeous decoration and a view of the azure sea. There are huge cobra and lion sculptures in the villa complex, and there are many large carnivores with full ornamental properties. There is also a mysterious aquarium in the park, and Nygard often lets women swim in bikinis like mermaids in the water.

Yet Nygard's desires were not limited to the beauty of mansions, and money and power twisted his mind. Nygard's private life is becoming increasingly chaotic, and he is often surrounded by young and beautiful models in front of the camera, and he also calls these girls the secret of his "staying young". Nygard was so eager to never die that he even spent a lot of money on plastic surgery. He searched for everything he could do to keep his youth alive, performing multiple skinlifts and injecting stem cells.

The villa complex, which Nigard called the "Wonder of the World," is the nightmare of many young girls.
2. Committing violence and obscenity and committing crimes
Nygard was obsessed with beauty and maimed thousands of teenage girls, many of them underage women. He haunts local clubs and shops, looks around for beautiful girls, and goes up to talk. Nigard lures these uninvolved women to his estate on Sunday afternoons by introducing high-paying fashion jobs. Nygard said that there were free manicures, horseback riding, unlimited drinking, massages and other services at the party, and many women were tempted by the "free lunch" and agreed to his invitation.
Nygard drank with numerous women
When the girls arrive at the manor, what awaits them is not a party of unbridled pleasure, but a violation from Nigard. Nygard would first tempt girls with promises such as money and help with employment, but those promises were nothing more than new scams. If a girl perceives that something is wrong and wants to leave, he will reveal his true face of hypocrisy and use drugs, violence and other means to threaten the girl to obey him. Even, he is not satisfied with a single atrocity, but will also adopt dual psychological and personal freedom control over the victimized girls to facilitate subsequent violations against them.
After his resignation, Nygard's personal assistant revealed to the media that Nygard not only hunted around himself, but also asked his subordinates to provide him with beautiful girls for sex trafficking. At one point, Nygard even told his assistant that he would do whatever it took to collect beautiful women for himself, even if it was to find them in the slums. Nygard did not see the girls as human beings at all, but as lambs to be slaughtered, as "commodities" for some kind of trade.
The back of a victim
Most of the women killed came from poor backgrounds and did not dare to resist after being intimidated and cruelly intimidated by Nygard's language. According to one victim, he was raped by Nigard after being drunk to the point of unconsciousness. Another victim, who said he was only 15 years old when he was raped, was lured to the estate by Nygard.
Where are the laws and the police committing such heinous crimes? Why is it that sin is only revealed decades after it has been buried? That's because Nigard has a hand-held presence in the Bahamas, where political parties, police, and journalists are his guests. Nygard often invited dignitaries, media reporters and even the local police to the villa for dinner and fun. Nygard also donated $5 million to a political party in the Bahamas, which later won the local election, and invited officials to visit the villa.
Nygard spoke with local officials
Money blinded people's eyes, and many people, tempted by Nygard's power, turned a blind eye to what he had committed, and some even joined in. There are also victims who want to come forward and expose Nygard's evil deeds, and there are also righteous police and media who want to investigate, but with it, houses are set on fire, tires are punctured, and endless stalking and intimidation are followed. As the "ground snake" of the Bahamas, no one dares to do justice under his control.
Nygard
Nygard became increasingly lawless, not only extending his claws to the company's female employees, but also instigating the victimized women to bring him new people. Nigard instructed the company's information department to create a database of victims with thousands of pieces of private information about the victims. For the sake of their work and reputation, and the fact that the police did not care about Nygard's crimes, many victims chose silence.
3. Sued by his son in court
When the distraught Nygard thought he could indulge in sex for the rest of his life, he provoked the American billionaire Louise because of the real estate dispute. Louis and Nygard quarreled, and Louis collected evidence of Nygard's incriminating evidence and launched as many as 25 lawsuits against him, including Nygard's sexual abuse of several minors. The sexual assault indictment was signed by dozens of women accusing him of his crimes.

At first, Nygard refused to admit it, saying that Louis had bought a false testimony and framed him. Yet justice will not be absent, and many of the women victims have plucked up the courage to stand up and confirm Nygard's crimes. In February 2020, a U.S. law firm accepted joint applications from dozens of women who had been victimized, and a lawsuit took 79-year-old Nigard to court. The women came from the Uk, Canada, the Bahamas and other countries, with the youngest victim being as young as 14 years old.
The lawsuit details Nygard's bribery of politicians and police, and his sexual violence against women in conjunction with local politicians. The lawsuit left the world in an uproar, and since then, more than 30 victims have come forward to identify Nygard for sexual harassment in the workplace. The sexual assault scandal has caused great international attention, and even if Nigard only covers the sky with his hands in the Bahamas, it will not be able to stop the overwhelming public opinion. In addition, these lawsuits have evidence, and numerous victims have been found in the Nygard Group's database.
Even more incredibly, Two of Nigard's sons also came forward to accuse Nigard of sending someone to sexually assault him. His two sons said they were abused by prostitutes hired by their fathers when they were 14 and 15 years old because they wanted their sons to "become men" in this way. The absurd reasons are unbelievable, and the two sons claim that their physical and mental health has been seriously violated and demand financial compensation from Nigard.
Nygard and his family
As the sexual assault scandal fermented, many partners terminated their contracts with Nygard and filed claims. A month after the victims launched a joint lawsuit, Nygard's clothing empire declared bankruptcy. Nygard, knowing that the tide was turning, hid at home in an attempt to evade the police and an opportunity to escape. December 14, 2020. Police arrested him at Nigard's Canadian mansion and found that Nigard had already exchanged large amounts of cash and was preparing to flee to Bermuda or Malta.

Canadian police have charged Nygard with extortion, sex trafficking and other crimes, and if the trial is successful, Nigard should spend the rest of his life in prison. Throughout Nygard's life, if he runs the company and family honestly after starting from scratch, and does not indulge in femininity and immortality, he may become a business legend in the mouths of future generations. However, Nygard did not resist the temptation of money and power, and eventually embarked on the path of crime. Even though Nigard had been imprisoned, the suffering of the women he had hurt was indelible for a lifetime.
Nygard's case is reminiscent of the Epstein case that preceded it. Epstein also committed numerous crimes of sexually abusing minors and eventually committed suicide in prison. The reason why the ugly behavior of these rich businessmen can be covered up is that the forces behind them that participate in and condone sexual assault cannot be spared. It's just that Nygard's sexual assault scandal involves many dignitaries and dignitaries, and the huge network of interests behind it has yet to be investigated by the police.
