Fashion Mogul Fights Sex Charges From Cell With TV and Phone

Fashion mogul Peter Nygard, who is fighting extradition from Canada to the U.S. on sex-trafficking charges, has a TV and phone in his jail cell and two mattresses that allow him to sleep at his preferred angle, the Canadian government said.

The conditions of Nygard’s detention were detailed in a government filing in response to his appeal of a Winnipeg court’s earlier denial of his bail request. He was arrested late last year at the request of U.S. prosecutors in New York who accuse him of using the resources and employees of his clothing company, Nygard International, to force dozens of women and minors in three countries to have sex with him and his friends.
