Criminal law 2016 NSSC 292

R. v. Shaw

Given the exploitive conduct toward two juvenile victims and the mandatory minimum for s.212(2), but noting the offences fell at the lower end of gravity among similar cases and the offender's mitigating factors and rehabilitation prospects, the appropriate global outcome is a sentence a notch above the mandatory minimum: 30 months' imprisonment for the prostitution-related offences (concurrent) and 3 months for the assault (concurrent); mandatory ancillary orders (SOIRA 20 years, forensic DNA order, weapons prohibition) were also imposed.

  • Living off the avails of prostitution
  • Procuring/controlling minors for prostitution
  • Assault with a weapon
  • Mandatory minimum sentence
  • Ancillary orders (soira, dna, weapons prohibition)
