The accused pleaded guilty to 11 charges involving child pornography, sexual offences against children, bestiality, and conspiracy charges.
The Crown sought a Long Term Offender (LTO) designation with a sentence of 4 to 6 years and a 10-year supervision order.
The defence sought a sentence of 2 years less 1 day with probation.
The court found the accused met all three LTO criteria and imposed a global sentence of 3 years imprisonment, with credit for pre-trial custody resulting in 193 days to be served, followed by a 4-year Long Term Supervision Order.
The court emphasized that the accused's offences, committed in furtherance of an abusive relationship with an older male, involved serious crimes against children and required significant denunciation and deterrence.
