The accused pleaded guilty to two counts of sexual assault and one count of assault causing bodily harm.
The first sexual assault occurred against an adult woman jogging in a public place.
The second sexual assault and assault causing bodily harm occurred against a 14-year-old girl walking home from school through a wooded area.
The Crown sought a global sentence of 7.5 years; the defence sought 2.5 to 3 years.
The court imposed a global sentence of 58 months (4 months for the assault on the adult and 4 years 6 months concurrent for the offences against the minor, consecutive to the first offence), with credit for 18 months of pre-trial custody, resulting in a net sentence of 40 months.
Ancillary orders included lifetime SOIRA registration, firearm prohibition, DNA orders, no-contact orders, and 20-year s. 161 restrictions.
