The accused pleaded guilty to impaired driving causing death, impaired driving causing bodily harm, criminal negligence, and possession of stolen property after crashing a stolen vehicle into a house.
The accused suffered severe, life-altering injuries requiring constant medical care.
The court considered Gladue factors, though finding a tenuous link, and the accused's dire medical situation as mitigating factors.
A global sentence of four years was imposed, reduced to 21 months net after credit for pre-trial custody, along with a 10-year driving prohibition and restitution.
