The offender pleaded guilty to aggravated assault following an unprovoked attack on an older victim.
The offender, who has a history of schizophrenia, sought enhanced pre-sentence custody credit beyond the standard 1.5 to 1 ratio due to time spent in segregation.
The court accepted a joint submission for a 5-year sentence.
The court declined to award enhanced credit, noting a lack of jurisdiction absent a Charter challenge, and finding that the offender's time in segregation was largely at his own request and did not constitute particularly harsh treatment.
