The late Wayne Hankey, a professor at the University of King's College in Halifax, had been charged with molesting three male students in the 1970s and ‘80s. The charges were dismissed after Hankey's death on Feb. 6, 2022.
Hankey, a classicist, had been the first director of the Foundation Year Program at King’s, and was centrally involved with the program for many years. In 1981, Hankey became the school’s librarian. As an Anglican priest, Hankey also played a prominent role in the King’s chapel. This included leading religious services.
In April of 2021, additional criminal charges were laid against Hankey — one charge of sexual assault relating to 1982, and one of indecent assault and gross indecency relating to 1977-1979.a month before the first trial was scheduled to begin. As a result of his death, the criminal charges against Hankey were dismissed by the Crown.
“In our view, King’s response to becoming aware of Dr. Hankey’s inappropriate behaviour, or suggestions of it, was lacking.
