The sentence for Jason Redmond will be delivered by a judge in Brockville on June 16.
The judge found the victim, over the course of a long day of drinking and drug use with Redmond, eventually lost consciousness “either because she went to sleep or as a result of the effects of alcohol, or a combination of these.”
His “markedly abusive” behaviour after the assault should be considered an aggravating factor when the judge delivers a sentence, the Crown said. Napier also said Redmond should receive a lifetime weapons ban, be required to submit his DNA, be placed on the sex offender’s registry and be barred from communicating with the victim or any witnesses in the case.
Stein said her client had made “significant efforts” to rehabilitate himself, but he remained an active drug user and dealt with several mental health issues, including post-traumatic stress disorder, major depressive disorder and attention deficit disorder.“It’s been a huge problem for him,” Stein said. “He’s under a tremendous amount of stress.”
“Jason has dragged this trial on for years and my mental health is deteriorating more and more by the day. I’m hanging on by a thread,” she said. He pleaded not guilty to all the charges: six counts of assault; three counts of assault causing bodily harm; one count of assault with a weapon; and one count of failing to provide the necessaries of life. A judge has yet to make a decision in that case.
