The Crown applied to have the offender designated a Dangerous Offender following his convictions for sexual assault and uttering death threats.
The offender had a lengthy criminal record, was previously designated a Long-Term Offender, and suffered from multiple major mental disorders.
Based on expert psychiatric evidence indicating a high risk of violent and sexual recidivism and the intractability of his disorders, the offender conceded the designation.
The court found the offender met the criteria under s. 753(1) of the Criminal Code and imposed an indeterminate sentence to protect the public.
