The offender pleaded guilty to voyeurism after his tenant discovered a hidden camera in their shared bathroom.
The camera had captured the tenant fully nude on multiple occasions over a period of years.
The offender argued that a recent brain injury reduced his moral culpability, but the court rejected this, noting the offending predated the injury and involved significant planning and deliberation.
Emphasizing denunciation and deterrence for a profound breach of trust by a repeat offender, the court rejected a conditional sentence and imposed a six-month custodial sentence followed by 24 months of probation.
