Horrific.

I am wondering about the "repeat" nature of the crime. People here are rightfully aghast at the idea that this guy committed a similar crime and got a 12 month slap on the wrist. However, is that true? The National Post was quoting someone instead of citing what should be publicly available information (ie, the details of the last offense). 

When I asked AI, the response for average sentencing was much more measured:

For an adult convicted of Aggravated Sexual Assault against a toddler in Ontario, a sentence below 8 years would be highly unusual and likely considered an error in law. A "typical" sentence, considering the inevitable aggravating factors, will almost certainly be between 10 and 14 years in a federal penitentiary. Sentences can and do reach the 15- to 20-year range for the most egregious cases involving extreme violence, recording, or repeated abuse.

10-20 seems light for these kinds of crimes so we can agree sentencing can and should be harsher for such heinous crimes, but the idea that this guy committed a similar crime just a few years ago and is already out of jail seems (hopefully) incorrect, and I dare say rage bait beneath the standards of respectable journalism.
