Lawrie McFarlane: Courts must take stronger measures against socially destructive behaviour


In 2017, Joshua Milne, a 23-year old man, sexually assaulted a 17-year old teen in Burnaby. Warning to readers: What follows is a graphic account, copied verbatim from the judge’s summation.
“[Milne] took advantage of her trust, rendered her unconscious, and then objectified and violated her, both through his prolonged five-hour attack and by recording his actions on his cellphone. The following morning, rather than provide assistance given her debilitated state, he lied to authorities, which led to her certification under the Mental Health Act and involuntary detention in hospital.”
Milne pleaded guilty to sexual assault (meaning, in this case, rape), and transmitting child pornography. In 2020, he was sentenced to 12 months for sexual assault, and two months for child pornography, a total of 14 months for an utterly despicable act.
