The offender was found guilty of sexually assaulting his intimate partner while she was asleep.
The Crown sought a sentence of 4 years, while the defence sought 2 to 2.5 years.
The court considered the serious nature of the offence, the offender's extensive criminal record, and the mitigating factor of a severe assault the offender suffered while in pre-sentence custody.
The court imposed a sentence of 3 years imprisonment, less credit for pre-sentence custody and lockdowns.
