COURT OF APPEAL FOR ONTARIO

CITATION: R. v. Giles, 2016 ONCA 510

DATE: 20160624

DOCKET: C61053

Doherty, Feldman and Brown JJ.A.

BETWEEN

Her Majesty the Queen

Respondent

and

Tyler Giles

Appellant

Najma Jamaldin, for the appellant

Katherine Beaudoin, for the respondent

Heard: June 24, 2016

On appeal from the sentence imposed by Justice Gorman, of
    the Superior Court of Justice, dated November 3, 2014.

APPEAL BOOK ENDORSEMENT

[1]

We would not interfere with the sentence imposed.  The trial judge was
    aware of the appellants unfortunate past.  However, in the context of the
    appellants criminal part for sexual offences involving children and the very
    serious nature of these offences (multiple assaults on multiple children), the
    fact that the appellant had been the victim of sexual abuse as a child, could not
    mitigate the sentence.

[2]

The facts were accepted as substantially correct.  Some ambivalence in
    counsels submissions about the exact number of assaults contemplated by the
    reference to multiple assaults does not amount to a dispute over the facts
    triggering the need for a 
Gardiner
 hearing.

[3]

The sentence was fit and consistent with the decisions of this court.

[4]

Leave is granted and the appeal is dismissed.
