Crown appeals the sentence:

Quotes from the Notice of Appeal:

“The sentence is not proportionate to the gravity of the offence, or to the degree of responsibility of the offender and is unfit,” the Crown states in its notice appealing both sentences.

It also says the punishments don’t do enough to deter others from committing similar crimes.

“The sentencing judge gave insufficient weight to denunciation and deterrence,” it says.

Justice Rodney Jerke also “underemphasized, or failed to give weight to, relevant aggravating factors … (and) overemphasized mitigating factors.”
