The accused pleaded guilty to incest and making child pornography involving his teenage daughter.
The offences occurred over a three-week period after the daughter moved in with him.
The court considered the accused's significant criminal record, substance abuse issues, and partial lack of insight as aggravating factors.
The early guilty plea, which spared the victim from testifying, was a significant mitigating factor.
The court imposed a global sentence of five years' incarceration, less enhanced credit for pre-sentence custody.
