The appellant appealed his dangerous offender designation, arguing the trial judge erred in relying on and misapprehending Correctional Services of Canada reports, and sought to introduce fresh expert evidence.
The Court of Appeal found the trial judge properly considered the institutional history and did not treat the reports as expert opinions.
The court declined to admit the fresh evidence under the Palmer test, noting the appellant continued to pose a serious risk to public safety.
The appeal was dismissed.
