The Crown applied to have the offender declared a dangerous offender following his conviction for kidnapping and sexually assaulting a third victim while threatening to use a knife.
The court reviewed the offender's extensive history of violence, non-compliance with court orders, and diagnoses of sexual sadism and antisocial personality disorder.
Despite the offender's recent use of anti-androgen medication (chemical castration), the court found no reasonable possibility of eventually controlling his risk in the community, given his history of deceit and the need for lifelong treatment.
The offender was designated a dangerous offender and sentenced to an indeterminate term in penitentiary.
