The offender pleaded guilty to assault causing bodily harm and failing to comply with a term of a recognizance.
The assault involved striking a vulnerable 66-year-old woman with an extremely low IQ in the face, causing significant bruising and swelling.
Days after release on bail, the offender breached a no-contact condition by approaching the victim.
The court imposed a sentence of 21 months imprisonment followed by 3 years probation, with credit for 305 days of pre-sentence custody at the 1.5:1 ratio plus an additional 5 months credit for harsh detention conditions at Toronto South Detention Centre, resulting in 1 month remaining to serve.
Ancillary orders included a 10-year weapons prohibition, a DNA order, and a non-communication order.
