How deep does the Peter Nygard case go? This is among the questions @cbcdocs seeks to answer in their new 3-part series, debuting tonight, based on the #EvilByDesign podcast with @timothysawa. Read more and find streaming details: https://t.co/dNFXzNaK2q

Some were as young as 14 years old. More than 125 survivors have come forward while Nygard denies all allegations. Lawyers believe it may be just the tip of the iceberg.
