A man found guilty of multiple sexual offences against B.C. teen Amanda Todd should be imprisoned for six years, not 12, as requested by the Crown, his defence lawyer says.
Posted: Oct. 12, 2022 3:56PMAmanda Todd's mother, Carol Todd, and brother Christopher leave the Law Courts in New Westminster, B.C., on Tuesday, Oct. 11, 2022. The Crown attorney says Dutch national Aydin Coban should receive a 12-year prison term for the harm he inflicted on the B.C. teenager.
Todd killed herself at her home in Port Coquitlam on Oct. 10, 2012, about five weeks after posting a video using flash cards saying she had no one to talk to, was suffering from anxiety and depression and had twice switched schools. However, Coban has been in custody since 2014 and is currently serving a nearly 11-year sentence for 68 similar offences in the Netherlands involving 33 girls, some as young as nine.
Kenworthy has described the man as unrepentant, at high risk to reoffend, unwilling to enter a rehabilitation program and deserving of a longer sentence that reflects his crime and serves as a deterrent.
