A compilation of offences from Kingston’s Ontario Court of Justice for the period of Feb. 1-5, 2021. Only sentences that involved a large fine, probation or incarceration are included.
Lyle Daye, 29, was convicted of violating probation he received in October 2020 by failing to report to his probation officer between November 2020 and January 2021. He was given double credit on 15 days of pretrial custody and sentenced to time served. Daye’s defence lawyer, Mark Snider, told Justice Allan Letourneau his client has mental health issues compounded by addiction, and Daye, speaking for himself, assured the judge that: “It won’t happen again,” because “I’ve turned my life around.” Daye said he was “so taken up with COVID” that he simply forgot to check in with probation services.
