The girls around Robert G. Miller - The Fifth Estate

WARNING: This episode contains graphic sexual details.

The Fifth Estate and Radio-Canada’s investigative program Enquête examine troubling claims that a Canadian billionaire had a long history of paying teenagers for sex, going to extraordinary lengths to obscure his trail.

Support is available for anyone who has experienced sexual violence. You can access crisis lines and local support services through this Government of Canada website () or the Ending Violence Association of Canada database (). ​​If you’re in immediate danger or fear for your safety or that of others around you, please call 911.

Update: Nov. 10, 2023

There have been some important developments since this story aired last February.

Robert G. Miller stepped down as CEO of Future Electronics and sold the company for $5 billion.

Montreal police have reopened their investigation, but no charges have been laid as of Nov. 10, 2023.

Forty-one women who say Miller paid them for sex when they were underage have launched a class-action lawsuit against the billionaire and Future Electronics. That lawsuit hasn't been certified by a judge.

Three other individual lawsuits, with claims totalling nearly $30 million, have also been filed. Miller contests all of these lawsuits.

We’ll continue to follow the story.
