US EditionMan who previously tried to argue 'sexsomnia' sentenced in Nanaimo court
- In 2023, a man was convicted of sexually assaulting his infant daughter and was sentenced to prison at the B.C. Supreme Court in Nanaimo on May 29, 2025.
- The conviction followed evidence including a 40-second cellphone video found by the man's common-law wife, and a defense claim of potential sexsomnia, which the court rejected.
- Additional charges included possession of child pornography, with semen matching the man's DNA found on a pink blanket seen in the video, while the man initially denied but later apologized for the assault.
- The judge sentenced him to 30 months for sexual interference and six months concurrently for child pornography, with a total of 23 months to serve after time served, and mandated 20 years on the sexual offender registry.
- The court noted the man had no prior record, showed genuine remorse, was of low risk to re-offend according to psychiatric evaluation, and ruled that a six-year sentence would have been excessive.
