The accused, K.D.B., was charged with sexual assault, administration of a stupefying substance (lorazepam), and breaches of undertaking and firearm prohibition.

The Crown withdrew two firearm-related counts.

The complainant testified that the accused provided her with a pill for anxiety, after which she experienced severe heaviness and memory loss, waking up next to the accused with semen on her back.

The accused denied the allegations, presenting an alibi and challenging the complainant's credibility.

The court found the accused not credible due to inconsistencies, exaggerations, and failure to call corroborating witnesses.

The complainant was found credible and reliable, supported by expert toxicological evidence confirming lorazepam in her system consistent with her timeline and described effects.

The court concluded that the accused intentionally administered lorazepam to facilitate sexual assault.

K.D.B. was found guilty of sexual assault, administration of a stupefying drug, and breach of undertaking and firearm prohibition.

The accused, a 23-year-old first-time offender, pleaded guilty to impaired driving causing death.

On August 16, 2015, after consuming alcohol at a party, he drove his vehicle at excessive speed through a red light, colliding with two other vehicles at an intersection in Toronto.

His passenger, a close friend, was not wearing a seatbelt and sustained catastrophic head and neck injuries, dying shortly after arrival at hospital.

Two other occupants in the struck vehicles sustained soft tissue injuries.

The sentencing court considered aggravating factors including the accused's prior traffic violations, high blood-alcohol level, and deliberate decision to drive while impaired, balanced against significant mitigating factors including his youth, lack of criminal record, genuine remorse, and strong community support.

The court imposed a sentence of four years and six months imprisonment, an eight-year driving prohibition, and ancillary orders for DNA sample and firearms prohibition.
