Sentencing date set for Lethbridge man in sexual interference case

LETHBRIDGE – Sentencing will have to wait until early next year for a 32-year-old Lethbridge man, who admitted to two counts of sexual interference last month.

Cody Tyler Black Forehead’s sentencing hearing has been scheduled for Jan. 25, 2019. Following his guilty pleas, a pre-sentence report and Gladue report were ordered to help shed light on Black Forehead’s circumstances, and they are expected to take roughly 16 weeks to complete.

He remains out of custody on $2,000 bail while he undergoes the assessments needed for the two reports.

In an agreed statement of facts, Black Forehead admitted that on Apr. 27, 2017, he met a 15-year-old boy on Facebook Messenger, and he invited the youth to go drinking with him. The youth agreed and brought another 15-year-old boy along.

After meeting at Black Forehead’s downtown apartment, the three started drinking alcohol and smoking marijuana that Black Forehead provided.

It was noted that he asked the youths what grade they were in – to which they responded Grade 9 – and one of the youths remembered saying he was 15 as well.

One of the youths reported that after becoming intoxicated, Black Forehead started kissing him and that he leaned away to avoid the contact. As the night progressed, Black Forehead performed sexual acts on both teens, and tried to get one of them to have sex with him.

The next morning the boys woke up naked and Black Forehead told them that they should do it again.

Both boys told authorities that they did not want to have sexual contact with Black Forehead.
