Penticton ex-youth leader awaits sentence in unusual child porn case
- Scott Vanderburg, 35, appeared in Penticton Provincial Court for sentencing after pleading guilty to creating and distributing child pornography, as defined under the Canadian Criminal Code.
- The Crown is seeking an 18-month jail term, followed by three years of probation, while the defense requests a conditional discharge or sentence in the community instead of jail.
- The court noted that Vanderburg held a position of trust, which was an aggravating factor, although no child was abused to create the materials involved.
- Due to the case's unique circumstances, the judge postponed the sentencing to a later date, with no established precedents for comparison.
