According to the Department of National Defence, the charges stem from “several incidents” that allegedly took place between March 22 and April 19, 2016.
It’s alleged the incidents happened at CFB Halifax when Florian-Rodriguez, a member from a Windsor, Ont. division, was attending a course at Naval Fleet School Atlantic.
Both the accused and victim were candidates on the course.
The standing court martial is scheduled for Monday, April 9 at 9:30 a.m.
