S.G. was found guilty by a jury of sexual assault contrary to s. 271 of the Criminal Code.
The victim, A.B., was the common-law partner of S.G.'s son, and S.G. had groomed her through repeated massages, culminating in penetrative sexual assault.
The court found that S.G. intentionally inserted his penis into A.B.'s vagina without consent and engaged in thrusting.
Aggravating factors included a breach of trust, grooming of a vulnerable victim, significant impact on the victim, and a prior sexual assault conviction.
Mitigating factors were few, primarily an expression of remorse.
The court emphasized denunciation and deterrence, sentencing S.G. to 4 years imprisonment, along with a DNA order, a lifetime Sex Offender Information Registration Act order, a communication abstention order, and a weapons prohibition order.
