O. Braithwaite

The offender was convicted of aggravated sexual assault, aggravated assault, forcible confinement, and other offences against a sex trade worker.

The Crown sought a sentence of 7-9 years and a long-term offender designation.

The court reviewed the offender's extensive criminal record, history of domestic violence, and psychiatric assessments indicating a moderate to high risk of sexual re-offending.

The court sentenced the offender to 8 years in custody, less pre-sentence credit, and designated him a long-term offender subject to a 10-year long-term supervision order.

The offender was convicted by a jury of two counts of dangerous driving causing bodily harm and two counts of failure to remain at the scene of an accident after rear-ending a motorcycle at high speed and fleeing.

The collision caused severe, life-altering injuries to the two victims.

The court considered the offender's difficult background, lack of alcohol involvement, and the automatic deportation consequence he faced.

The court sentenced the offender to 12 months for dangerous driving and 6 months consecutive for failing to remain, totaling 18 months in custody, along with a 5-year driving prohibition.
