K.B. was found guilty of four counts of sexually assaulting S.F., a vulnerable adult with the intellectual capacity of a child, over a four-day period.
He was acquitted of unlawful confinement.
The court considered sentencing principles, emphasizing denunciation and deterrence for offences against vulnerable persons, and applied principles from cases involving child sexual abuse.
Aggravating factors included the victim's extreme vulnerability, the prolonged nature of the assaults, the victim's lack of escape means, and K.B.'s significant criminal record including prior assaults.
The court imposed a global sentence of 5 years for the sexual assault counts, to be served concurrently.
After credit for pre-trial custody, the remaining sentence was 2 years and 54 days.
Ancillary orders included a weapons prohibition, DNA sample order, lifetime Sex Offender Information Registration Act compliance, and a non-communication order.
