Two defendants pleaded guilty to robbery of two sex workers.
The defendants lured the victims to a hotel room under false pretenses and, following a planned and deliberate attack, robbed them of money and personal items while inflicting serious injuries including permanent scarring and internal damage requiring plastic surgery.
The Crown sought two years less one day in custody, while the defence sought 90 days intermittent.
The court imposed 9 months in custody followed by two years probation, balancing the serious nature of the planned robbery against the defendants' otherwise good character, genuine remorse, and rehabilitation efforts.
