  • Victims of a Brantford, Ont., woman who was sentenced to house arrest earlier this year for defrauding and deceiving doulas say they’re not surprised she’s been apprehended again on similar charges.
    In December, Kaitlyn Braun, 25, pleaded guilty to 21 charges including fraud, mischief and committing indecent acts. Court heard that for months she had contacted doulas, falsely claiming she was pregnant.

    She had the doulas go into the shower, give her massages, and remain in close physical contact with her while she was unclothed. Many of the doulas were s.xually traumatized.

      Some of the doulas that she lied to believe there is also a sexual component to all of this as well. The original charges against her before the plea deal had SA charges. No idea why they dropped them because according to some of the doulas they felt violated by the acts they were made to do under false pretenses. This girl is beyond messed up.

      This news report leaves out a lot of the more messed up parts of her original charges. She was originally charged with sexual assault but the plea deal dropped them. According to some of the doulas, this woman was doing this as some kind of birth fetish. A lot felt violated by these acts they were made to do under false pretenses. I don’t know why the news is being vague about how awful some of the allegations are against this woman.

      She was originally charged with SA but got lucky and had them drop those charges with a plea deal. A lot of these doulas believe she was doing this as some kind of kink. That she has a birthing fetish. She would ask these women to help her not only undress her but help her in the shower plus many other creepy things . These doulas didn’t realize how alarming it was until they found out she wasn’t even pregnant. I don’t understand why the news didn’t go into the more alarming allegations that came out against this woman.
