The Crown applied for an order remanding the offender for an assessment for a dangerous or long-term offender application following his conviction for aggravated assault against a fellow inmate.
The court reviewed the offender's criminal record, including youth convictions, intimate partner violence, and a manslaughter conviction.
The court found that the threshold for ordering an assessment, while low, was not met, as the offender's past behaviour did not provide reasonable grounds to believe he might be found to be a dangerous or long-term offender.
The application was dismissed.
