Notorious Okanagan man had a court date for possession of a firearm contrary to order

More than a dozen people rallied outside a B.C. courthouse Thursday as Curtis Sagmoen, an Okanagan-based man with a history of violence against women, was set to make an appearance.

Janet Enoch helped to organize the rally this week, as people equipped with drums, red dresses and signage to honour missing and murdered women called for justice. In 2017, the remains of 18-year-old Traci Genereaux were found on Sagmoen’s parent’s farm, which led to a massive RCMP search of the property and investigation. Sagmoen has not been charged in connection with her death.Enoch told IndigiNews that the purpose of the gathering was to not only condemn Sagmoen, but to amplify concerns around violence against women in Canada and the United States.

“We’re there for Traci. We’re there for other missing and murdered ladies who can’t speak for themselves,” said Enoch.
