The Crown applied to have the offender declared a dangerous offender following his conviction for sexual assault of a minor.
The offender had a lengthy history of sexual and violent offences and was diagnosed with paraphilia and intellectual disability.
The court found that the offender met the criteria for a dangerous offender and concluded there was no reasonable expectation that a lesser measure, such as a determinate sentence with long-term supervision, would adequately protect the public.
The offender was sentenced to an indeterminate period of detention in a penitentiary.
