WINNIPEG — A Crown attorney in Winnipeg says a man who was 17 when he committed two horrific sex attacks should be sentenced as an adult.
Jennifer Comack told a sentencing hearing the man, who cannot be identified because of his age at the time, must be held responsible for his part in the attacks in November 2014.
The former teen, along with an adult friend, have pleaded guilty to two counts of aggravated sexual assault.
In the first attack, the pair robbed, stomped and sexually assaulted a 16-year-old girl, who ended up in a frigid river clinging to life.
