Rainier Jesse Azucena, 35, has been sentenced to a conditional discharge and three years of probation after pleading guilty to a series of transit attacks on strangers.
A 35-year-old New Westminster man has been sentenced to a conditional discharge with three years of probation after pleading guilty to a series of random, unprovoked transit attacks on South Asian men in Burnaby, Vancouver and New Westminster.
He had grown beyond his family’s ability to care for him, and his mental health issues had gone untreated for some time, Dow said.After Azucena’s arrest, La Liberte said transit police took him to Royal Columbian Hospital, but he then ended up at the North Fraser Pretrial Centre for a month. But for nearly five months now, Azucena has been at a mental health facility and has stabilized, according to La Liberte.
That means Azucena, who doesn’t have a criminal record, will not have one if he abides by the conditions of his probation.“I’m satisfied a conditional discharge is the appropriate outcome,” she said.He is also banned from contacting any of his victims and from possessing any weapons.Random attacks Metro Vancouver Transit Police described five of the attacks Azucena was charged with in a Feb. 14 news release.
